The expression simplifies to twice the usual

Let be a random sample from distribution, where is unknown. Let be the Bayes estimator of , under the squared error loss function and the prior distribution N(1, 2). If converges in distribution to a random variable Z, as , then which of the following statements are true?

  1. A. converges in probability to , as , for all
  2. B.Z follows normal distribution.
  3. C.
  4. D.

You have the answer. Trap Analysis is why the other three were written.

Not a worked solution repeated four times — the specific reasoning error each wrong option was built to reward.
