In this paper, we study the error estimate of the $\theta$-schemefor the backward stochastic differential equation$y_t=\varphi(W_T)+\int_t^Tf(s,y_s)ds-\int_t^Tz_sdW_s$. We show thatthis scheme is of first-order convergence in $y$ for general$\theta$. In particular, for the case of $\theta=\frac{1}{2}$ (i.e.,the Crank-Nicolson scheme), we prove that this scheme is ofsecond-order convergence in $y$ and first-order in $z$. Somenumerical examples are also given to validate our theoreticalresults.
