do part b,c,d

Suppose that independent observations r1, 22,..., rn are available from the
log-normal distribution with pdf
1
1 (log r
f(r|0) :
exp
(2m)'/20x
on r> 0,
where 0 > 0. It can be shown that the log-likelihood is
e(0) = C – n log 0 –
202 L (log x;)?,
where C does not depend on 0 (you do not need to prove this result). Let ô
be the MLE of 0. It also turns out to be the case that
2n
E{-l"(0)} =
02
(Again, you do not need to prove this result.)
In this question, interest lies in testing Họ : 0 = 60 against Hị : 0 # 0o.
(a) Show that
1
1
log (LR) = –n log
(log r:)².
(b) What is the asymptotic null distribution of 2 log(LR)? Explain your
answer.
(c) How would you use your answer to part (b) to perform a fixed-level test
of Ho of size a = 0,05? (No more calculations are needed.)
(d) If 0o = 1, obtain formulae for both Wald statistics, W1 and W2.
