Suppose that X1, ..., Xm are iid Bernoulli(p), Y1, ...., Yn are iid Bernoulli(q), and that the X's are independent of the Y's where 0 < p < 1 is the unknown parameter with q = 1 - p. By means of the conditional distribution approach, show that sum of Xi - sum of Yi is sufficient for p. {Hint: Instead of looking at the data (X1, ..., Xm, Y1, ...., Yn), can one justify looking at (X1, ..., Xm,...
