The joint pmf/pdf can be written as a product because the sample observations are assumed to be independent. Independence allows the joint distribution to factor into the product of the corresponding univariate pmf/pdf terms.

Conditions: The observations x1,…,xnx_1, \dots, x_n are independent.; The joint distribution is written as f(x1,…,xn∣θ)f(x_1, \dots, x_n \mid \theta).; Each observation shares the same marginal pmf/pdf f(xi∣θ)f(x_i \mid \theta).
