Let Y1, Y2, . . . , Yn denote independent and identically

Chapter 9, Problem 44E

(choose chapter or problem)

Let \(Y_{1}, Y_{2}, \ldots, Y_{n}\) denote independent and identically distributed random variables from a Pareto distribution with parameters \(\alpha \text { and } \beta\). Then, by the result in Exercise 6.18, if \(\alpha, \beta>0\),

\(f(y \mid \alpha, \beta)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}  \alpha \beta^{\alpha} y^{-(\alpha+1)}, & y \geq \beta \\  0, & \text { elsewhere }  \end{array}\right.\)

If \(\beta\) is known, show that \(\prod_{i=1}^{n} Y_{i}\) is sufficient for \(\alpha\)
