โฆ Synopsis
We consider a classical surplus process modified by the action of a constant force of interest. We derive recursive algorithms for the calculation of the probability of ruin in finite time. We also discuss the numerical evaluation of the probability of ultimate ruin using methods proposed by De Vylder [De Vylder, F.

The aggregate claims are modeled as a compound binomial process, and the individual claim amounts are integer-valued. We study f(x, y; u), the "discounted" probability of ruin for an initial surplus u, such that the surplus just before ruin is x and the deficit at ruin is y. This function can be use
