Let \( S^2 \) be the sample variance of a random sample of size \( n > 1 \) from \( N(\mu, \theta) \) where \( \mu \) is known. We know \( \mathbb{E}(S^2) = \theta \).

(a) What is the efficiency of \( S^2 \)?

(b) Under these conditions, what is the mle \( \hat{\theta} \) of \( \theta \)?

(c) What is the asymptotic distribution of \( \sqrt{n}(\hat{\theta} - \theta) \)?

Expert Solution
Step 1

b)

Given that the random sample X1,X2,....,Xn follows Nμ,θ.

f(x)=12πθe-12θ(x-μ)2

Consider the likelihood function,

L(x,θ)=i=1nf(x)           =i=1n12πθe-12θ(x-μ)2         =12πθne-12θ(x-μ)2

Apply log on both sides,

lnL(x,θ)=ln12πθne-12θ(x-μ)2              =-n2ln(2πθ)-12θ(x-μ)2
