This paper discusses the problem of existence of unbiased estimate for a and β under some restrictions commonly used in practice. It is proved that the unbiased estimate does not exist under many such restrictions. We also point out one important case in which the unbiased estimates of a and β exist, and the form of the MVUE of a and β are also given.展开更多
