In this paper, a discrete-time risk model is considered. We assume that the premium received in each time interval is a positive real-valued random variable, and the sequence of premiums is a Markov chain. In any time interval the probability of a claim occurrence is related to the premium received in the corresponding period. We discuss control strategies for dividends paid periodically to the shareholders under two cases: absence and presence of ceiling restriction for dividend rates. We provide algorithms and some properties for the optimal control strategies by transforming the value function.
