Abstract: We get computable error bound of order $O(n^{-1})$ for chi-squared with 1 degree of freedom approximation of transformed chi-squared random variable with $n$ degrees of freedom. The result is applied for likelihood ratio statistics in multivariate case.

Keywords: Computable error bound, chi-squared approximation, likelihood ratio statistics, transformation of random variables
