Finite–sample size <strong>of</strong> likelihood ratio test for<br />

nominal size 5%<br />

N = number <strong>of</strong> assets,<br />

T = sample size<br />

For example, for N = 10, and T = 60, <strong>the</strong> critical<br />

value for a LRT with asymptotic size 5% is 18.307,<br />

which corresponds to a critical value <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> exact F –<br />

test <strong>of</strong><br />

cF =<br />

T − N − 1 LRT<br />

N<br />

T<br />

= 49<br />

( { } )<br />

18.307<br />

exp − 1 = 1.748.<br />

10 60<br />

The actual size <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> LRT in this situation is <strong>the</strong>refore<br />

1 − F cdf (1.748; 49, 10) = 0.096.<br />
