Abstract
This note is concerned with N, the time at which a random walk first exits from [0,∞), and M, the maximum of the random walk up to time N. In the case that the random walk has zero mean and finite variance, simple proofs are given of asymptotic estimates for P{M > x}, P{N ≦ ux 2|M > x} and P{M ≦ v √n|N > n}.
