AbstractIn this paper we consider the asymptotics of logarithmic tails of a perpetuityR=D∑j=1∞Qj∏k=1j-1Mk, where (Mn,Qn)n=1∞are independent and identically distributed copies of (M,Q), for the case when ℙ(M∈[0,1))=1 andQhas all exponential moments. IfMandQare independent, under regular variation assumptions, we find the precise asymptotics of -logℙ(R>x) asx→∞. Moreover, we deal with the case of dependentMandQ, and give asymptotic bounds for -logℙ(R>x). It turns out that the dependence structure betweenMandQhas a significant impact on the asymptotic rate of logarithmic tails ofR. Such a phenomenon is not observed in the case of heavy-tailed perpetuities.
