This paper provides a computational technique for the evaluation of the net present value (NPV) of an investment, in which the cash inflows occur at random time points and which terminates after a fixed time interval. The initial cash outlay is deterministic and the magnitudes of the cash...

First moment inequalities are developed for the limiting behaviour of a class of stochastic systems, such as queues, storage or insurance-risk systems, subject to two types of input where the "primary" input is generated by a compound Poisson process and the "secondary" input by a cumulative...
