Moments of truncated normal/independent distributions

In this work we have considered the problem of finding the moments of a doubly truncated member of the class of normal/independent distributions. We obtained a general result and then use it to derive the moments in the case of doubly truncated versions of Pearson type VII distribution, slash distribution, contaminated normal distribution, double exponential distribution and variance gamma distribution. We also give an application of some actuarial data. Copyright Springer-Verlag 2013
