Abstract: In this paper, we discusses the problem of optimal dividend payment in compound binomial dual model with bounded dividend rates and periodic dividend payments. Through transforming the value function, we obtain some properties of the optimal dividend payment strategy, and show that the optimal value function is the unique solution of a discrete HamiltonJacobi-Bellman equation. Meanwhile, a simple algorithm is obtained for the optimal strategy and the optimal value function. According to the properties of the optimal dividend strategy, an upper bound and a lower bound of the optimal value function are derived. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the transformation method.
