This simpler proof of a theorem of E. J. Hannan on the estimation of parameters in simultaneous stochastic equations emphasizes the equivalence between maximum likelihood and generalized variance ratio, includes a proof of a theorem on maximizing the ratio of two determinants |ANA|/|AMA| with respect to A, and brings out the restrictive assumption of Hannan's theorem in relating simultaneous equations system and canonical correlation theory.
