Abstract

We consider a discrete-time model describing the capital of an input-output system of mixed type. Such models can arise in various applications of probability theory, e.g. queuing and reliability theory, telecommunication, inventories and dams, insurance and many others. The inflow consists of constants, whereas outflow is a sequence of independent identically distributed random variables with a known distribution function. It is also assumed that at the beginning of each period the company under consideration invests a certain quota of the available capital in a non-risky asset for a fixed number of periods. The objective function is the system reliability. Thus, we establish the formula for company ruin probability, in other words, the probability that sooner or later its capital becomes negative. Some numerical results are also provided.
