8. Suppose $x1, x2, \ldots, xn$ is a random sample of size $n$ from a Poisson distribution with mean $\lambda$, and assume $n = 2k$ for some integer $k$. Consider the following estimator. $\hat{\lambda} = \frac{1}{2k} \sum{i=1}^{k} (x{2i} - x{2i-1})^2$ Which of the following is correct?(A) \( \hat{\lambda} \) is a linear and an unbiased estimator.(B) \( \hat{\lambda} \) is a linear but biased estimator.(C) \( \hat{\lambda} \) is not a linear but an unbiased estimator.(D) \( \hat{\lambda} \) is neither a linear nor an unbiased estimator.

9. Suppose $x1, x2, \ldots, x_n$ is a random sample of size $n$ from a normal distribution with mean $\mu$ and variance $\sigma^2$. What is the Cramér-Rao lower bound for $\sigma^2$?(A) $\frac{\sigma^2}{n}$(B) $\frac{\sigma^2}{n-1}$(C) $\frac{2\sigma^4}{n}$(D) $\frac{2\sigma^4}{n-1}$

10. Consider the wage equation $\ln(wagei) = \beta0 + \beta1 educi + ui$, where $ui$ contains unobserved ability $abilityi$ and local labor-market quality $Li$. Assume $Cov(educi, abilityi) > 0$ and $Li$ directly affects wages. A proposed instrument is distance to nearest college, $zi$. Suppose $zi$ is strongly correlated with $Li$ (e.g. urban areas have smaller distance and higher wages even holding education fixed), and $L_i$ is omitted from the regression. Which statement is most correct?(A) The exclusion restriction may fail because \( z{i} \) can affect \( \ln (wage{i}) \) through \( L{i} \), so \( Cov(z{i},u_{i}) \) may be nonzero.(B) If \( Cov(z{i}, e d u c{i}) \neq 0 \), IV is always consistent regardless of \( L_{i} \).(C) Adding an intercept is sufficient to control for \( L_{i} \)(D) If OLS is biased, IV must be unbiased in finite samples
