Abstract

By introducing a truncation parameter, we generalize the Ahmad–Wang inequality (2016) which provides an estimate of the accuracy of the normal approximation to distribution of a sum of independent random variables in terms of weighted absolute values of truncated third-order moments and tails of the second-order moments of random summands. The obtained estimate also generalizes the celebrated inequalities due to Berry (1941), Esseen (1942, 1969), Katz (1963), and Petrov (1965).
