Question:

The following two examples show that the assumption of a finitesample space is needed in Problem 8.7.

(i) Let X1, …, Xn be i.i.d. according to a normal distribution N(σ, σ2) and test H : σ = σ0 against K : σ>σ0.

(ii) Let X and Y be independent Poisson variables with E(X) = λ and E(Y ) =

λ + 1, and test H : λ = λ0 against K : λ>λ0. In each case, determine the LMP test and show that it is not LUMP.

[Compare the LMP test with the most powerful test against a simple alternative.]
