By combining two alternative formulations of a test statistic with two alternative resampling schemes we obtain four different bootstrap tests. In the context of static linear regression models two of these are shown to have serious size and power problems, whereas the remaining two are adequate and in fact equivalent. The equivalence between the two valid implementations is shown to break down in dynamic regression models. Then the procedure based on the test statistic approach performs best, at least in the AR(l)-model. Similar finite-sample phenomena are illustrated in the ARMA(l,l)-model through a small-scale Monte Carlo study and an empirical example.
