An infinite dam with a compound Poisson input having exponential jumps is considered. As an output policy, we adopt the $P_{\lambda}$$^{M}$ Policy. After assigning costs to the dam we obtain the long-rum average cost per unit time of operating the dam and find the optimal values of .lambda. and M which minimize the long-run average cost.t.
