This result is used extensively for testing the
goodness of fit of the model fitted to the series,
by applying it to the autocorrelations of the
estimated model residuals.

This result is used for testing that k 0 from
some lag (q+1). The variance formula applies
also when k 0 since for large k, k 0 .
