description The existence of the advance parameter in a scalar differential equation prevents the application of the well-known standard methods used for solving classical ordinary differential equations. A simple procedure is introduced in this paper to remove the advance parameter from a special kind of first-order scalar differential equation. The suggested approach transforms the given first-order scalar differential equation to an equivalent second-order ordinary differential equation (ODE) without the advance parameter. Using this method, we are able to construct the exact solution of both the transformed model and the given original model. The exact solution is obtained in a wave form with specified amplitude and phase. Furthermore, several special cases are investigated at certain values/relationships of the involved parameters. It is shown that the exact solution in the absence of the advance parameter reduces to the corresponding solution in the literature. In addition, it is declared that the current model enjoys various kinds of solutions, such as constant solutions, polynomial solutions, and periodic solutions under certain constraints of the included parameters.
