2. Consider an independent and identically distributed random sample X₁,..., Xn from the population density: 1 fx (x|0) = exp 30 {-30 } Vx>0 where the parameter of interest is > 0. The generic random variable X from this population has expectation 30 and variance 90². (a) Describe what is a method of moments estimator, and find the method of moments estimator for 0. [5] (b) Write down the likelihood and log-likelihood functions for 0. [6] (c) Write down the score and the observed Fisher information functions for 0. [6] (d) Find the maximum likelihood estimator for 0. [6] (e) Calculate the bias and the mean squared error for the maximum likelihood estimator for 0. [6] (f) Does the maximum likelihood estimator for attain the Cramer-Rao lower bound for unbiased estimators? [6] Total [35]
