Abstract. In this paper we consider a discrete time renewal risk model with arbitrary interclaim times. An explicit formula is derived for the discounted factorial moments of the deficit at ruin by using a recursive equation satisfied by the Gerber-Shiu discounted penalty function. Numerical illustrations are also given to show that the formula obtained is readily programmable and works well for special claim distributions.
