Abstract

This paper considers a problem of warranty reserving, namely, the current practice of setting aside part of a product revenue to meet future claims arising from the warranty. We define a Compound Poisson stochastic model for warranty claims and reserve and obtain, using a sample paths technique, the long‐run probability distribution of a warranty reserves, managed under alternative warranties and reserve policies.
