Abstract

The accuracy and speed of numerical methods for computing the moments of a ratio of quadratic forms in normal variables is examined, with particular application to the sample autocorrelation function. Methods based on a saddlepoint approximation are demonstrated to be not only superior to existing approximations, but are numerically reliable and virtually as accurate as the method suitable for exact computations, while taking only a fraction of the time to compute. The new method also maintains its accuracy for time series models near
