'''Lognormal Distribution Likelihood Ratio Bound Example (Time)'''
#REDIRECT [[The Lognormal Distribution]]
 
For the data given in Example 5, determine the two-sided 75% confidence bounds on the time estimate for a reliability of 80%.  The ML estimate for the time at  <math>R(t)=80%</math>  is 55.718.
 
'''Solution'''
 
In this example, we are trying to determine the two-sided 75% confidence bounds on the time estimate of 55.718. This is accomplished by substituting  <math>R=0.80</math>  and  <math>\alpha =0.75</math>  into Eqn. (lognormliketr), and varying  <math>{{\sigma }_{{{T}'}}}</math>  until the maximum and minimum values of  <math>t</math>  are found. The following table gives the values of  <math>t</math>  based on given values of  <math>{{\sigma }_{{{T}'}}}</math> .

As can be determined from the table, the lowest calculated value for  <math>t</math>  is 43.634, while the highest is 66.085. These represent the two-sided 75% confidence limits on the time at which reliability is equal to 80%.
