The well-known Baum-Eagon inequality (1967) provides an effective iterative scheme for finding a local maximum for homogeneous polynomials with positive coefficients over a domain of probability values. However, in many applications the goal is to maximize a general rational function. In view of this, the Baum-Eagon inequality is extended to rational functions. Some of the applications of this inequality to statistical estimation problems are briefly described
