Statistical Inference — LRT and Neyman-Pearson equivalence

Let x1,x2,…,xnx_1,x_2,…,x_n be a random sample from a Poisson distribution with parameter λ>0\lambda>0. Which of the following statements are correct in respect of Likelihood Ratio Test (LRT)? 1. The LRT for testing H0:λ=λ0H_0:\lambda=\lambda_0 against H1:λ>λ0H_1:\lambda>\lambda_0 produces UMP test identical to the test obtained by NP theory of testing. 2. The LRT for testing H0:λ=λ0H_0:\lambda=\lambda_0 against H1:λ<λ0H_1:\lambda<\lambda_0 produces UMP test identical to the test obtained by NP theory of testing. 3. The LRT for testing H0:λ=λ0H_0:\lambda=\lambda_0 against H1:λ≠λ0H_1:\lambda\ne\lambda_0 produces UMPU test identical to the test obtained by NP theory of testing. Select the correct answer using the code given below:
