Question:

Negative binomial. Let X, Y be independently distributed according to negative binomial distributions Nb(p1, m) and Nb(p2, n) respectively, and let qi = 1 − pi.

(i) There exists a UMP unbiased test for testing H : θ = q2/q1 ≤ θ0 and hence in particular H : p1 ≤ p2.

(ii) Determine the conditional distribution required for testing H when m =

n = 1.
