We consider the single equation errors in variables model and assume that a researcher is willing to specify upper bounds on the possible measurement errors in the exogenous variables. We prove that as a result the set of possible ML estimates is bounded by an ellipsoid. The result is generalized to IV estimation of a structural equation of a simultaneous system, which has only endogenous variables on the right hand side.
