#' * `ac_test_wald`: Wald test
#' * `ac_test_lb`: Ljung-Box
#' * `ac_test_bp`:  Box-Pierce
#' * `ac_test_bg`: Breusch-Godfrey
#'
#' @param x an `ivx` model or a `numeric vector`, usually the residuals from an ols regression.
#' @param lag the number of lags.
#'
#'
#' @details #' If p-value < 0.051: You can reject the null hypothesis assuming a
#' 5% chance of making a mistake. So you can assume that your values are showing
#' dependence on each other.
#'
#' @seealso `Box.test` `lmtest::bgtest`
#'
#' @return a numeric scalar or numeric vector.
