\hat{\beta} = \max(X_1, X_2, \ldots X_n) is chosen as an estimator of \beta.
- I.
\hat{\beta}is both the maximum likelihood estimator and method of moments estimator of\beta - II.
\hat{\beta}is sufficient statistic for\beta - III. The minimum variance unbiased estimator of
\betais a function of\hat{\beta}
