1. Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn denote a random sample from a population with mean µ ∈ (−∞,∞) and
variance σ2 ∈ (0,∞). Let Y¯n = n−1
∑n
i=1 Yi. Recall that, by the law of large numbers, Y¯n is a
consistent estimator of µ.
(a) (10 points) Prove that Un = nn+1 Y¯n is a consistent estimator of µ.
(b) (5 points) Prove that Vn = Y¯n − nn+1 is not a consistent estimator of µ.
(c) (5 points) Suppose that, for each i, P(|Yi − µ| > 3) = 0.025. Is Y2 a consistent estimator
of µ? Prove what you assert.

2. Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn be iid Uniform(a, b) random variables, where a < b. Recall that this implies
that E(Yi) = (a+ b)/2, and that V (Yi) = (b− a)2/12.
(a) (5 points) Prove that
E(Y 2i ) =
(a+ b)2

(b) (5 points) Let µ′1 = E(Yi), and let µ′2 = E(Y 2i ). Use what you showed in (a) to prove that
a+ b = 2µ′1, b− a = 2

3 [µ′2 − (µ′1)2].
(c) (5 points) Use results in (b) to express a and b as functions of µ′1 and µ′2.
(d) (5 points) Let y1, y2, . . . , yn be observed values of Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn. Suppose that

Based on these observed sample moments, find estimates of a and b using the method of
moments.

3. Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn a random sample from a Uniform(−θ, 0) distribution, where θ > 0. This
implies that the marginal pdf of Yi is
f(yi|θ) =
{
1/θ, −θ ≤ yi ≤ 0
0, elsewhere .
(a) (10 points) Write down the likelihood function of the sample, L(y1, y2, . . . , yn|θ).
(b) (10 points) Find the MLE of θ. (Hint: Refer to Example 9.16. Let y1, y2, . . . , yn be
observed values of Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn. Then yi < 0 for each i, and L(y1, y2, . . . , yn|θ) ̸= 0 if and
only if θ ≥ max{−y1,−y2, . . . ,−yn}.)

4. Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn be iid random variables from a Pareto distribution with parameters α > 0
and β = 2. The marginal pdf of Yi is
f(yi|α) =
{

.
(a) (10 points) Prove that U = Πni=1Yi is sufficient for α.
(b) (10 points) Find the MLE of α. (You can assume that the log likelihood function is
maximized when its derivative is zero.)

5. Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn denote a random sample from a Bernoulli distribution with mean θ. Note
that this implies that E(Yi) = θ, and V (Yi) = θ(1−θ). Consider the following three estimators
for θ.

It’s clear that all three estimators are unbiased.
(a) (10 points) Find the efficiency of Un relative to Sn and Tn, respectively.
(b) (10 points) Use Slutsky’s Theorem (Theorem 9.3) to show that √n(Un−θ)/

Un(1− Un)
converges to a standard normal distribution as n→∞.
