Question:
14.27 Let \(\zeta\) denote a generic measure of association. For \(K\) independent multinomial samples of sizes \(\left\{n_{k}\right\}\), suppose that \(\sqrt{n_{k}}\left(\hat{\zeta}_{k}-\zeta_{k}\right)\) \(\xrightarrow{d} N\left(0, \sigma_{k}^{2}\right)\) as \(n_{k} \rightarrow \infty\). A summary measure is
\[\bar{\zeta}=\frac{\sum_{k}\left(n_{k} / \hat{\sigma}_{k}^{2}\right) \hat{\zeta}_{k}}{\sum_{k}\left(n_{k} / \hat{\sigma}_{k}^{2}\right)}\]
a. Show that \(\sum_{k} z_{k}^{2}=V+\left[\bar{\zeta}^{2} / \hat{\sigma}^{2}(\bar{\zeta})\right]\), where
\[V=\sum_{k} \frac{n_{k}\left(\hat{\zeta}_{k}-\bar{\zeta}\right)^{2}}{\hat{\sigma}_{k}^{2}}, \quad z_{k}=\frac{n_{k}^{1 / 2} \hat{\zeta}_{k}}{\hat{\sigma}_{k}}, \quad \hat{\sigma}^{2}(\bar{\zeta})=\left(\sum_{k} \frac{n_{k}}{\hat{\sigma}_{k}^{2}}\right)^{-1} .\]
b. Suppose that \(n \rightarrow \infty\) with \(n_{k} / n \rightarrow \rho_{k}>0, k=1, \ldots, K\). State the asymptotic chi-squared distribution for each component in the partitioning in part (a). Indicate the hypothesis that each tests.
The word "distribution" has several meanings in the financial world, most of them pertaining to the payment of assets from a fund, account, or individual security to an investor or beneficiary. Retirement account distributions are among the most...
