Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to show limits of applications of statistical tests based on the theory Neyman-Pearson. The most important feature of each test is its power, which we can examine if only we had formulated both the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis. In this paper we present an example of a test, for which we defined empirical power and size.
