Abstract
In this paper we have provided a general result on the higher-order ap proximate moments of the ratio of quadratic forms in the non-normal ve ctor. The results for the normal case are then presented as a special case of this result. It is also indicated that the results for a large class of econometric estimators and test statistics can be obtained b y using our general result.
