New better than used in expectation
ID: new-better-than-used-in-expectation
A nonnegative lifetime or claim law is new better than used in expectation if its mean residual life at every age with positive survival is at most its original mean. The displayed equivalent inequality says that its equilibrium claim-size distribution is no larger in stochastic order than the original law. For an Erlang distribution of shape two and rate one, the two survival functions are and , so the condition holds.
