VoseRuin(ClaimInterval,ClaimSize,InitialReserve,PolicyPrice,PolicySalesRate,Horizon,DividendThreshold,
Discountrate)
Returns the part of the VoseRuin function with the deepest level below zero the funds drop before the time horizon. Returns 0 if the funds never drop below zero.
ClaimInterval - the distribution of time between each impact. Must be a distribution object.
Claimsize - the distribution of the size of each impact. Must be a non-negative distribution object.
Initial reserve - the funds available at time zero. This should be a value greater than zero.
PolicyPrice - the income generated by selling an individual policy. This should be a value greater than zero.
PolicySalesRate - the time between each income.
Horizon - the time horizon against which to compare whether a ruin event occurs or not.
DividendTreshold - (optional) the level of funds above which they are used for dividend.
DiscountRate - (optional) the discount rate (per time unit) to be applied to the dividend cashflows. This must be a value greater than or equal to zero.
As this function takes many parameters, we recommend using the Ruin window for performing this calculation to avoid errors.
