A known formula [\textit{W. S. Jewell}, ibid. 11, 293-295 (1981; Zbl 0458.60080)] for the expectation of a renewal process mean is generalized to the case of the fixed time being replaced by a nonnegative random variable \(T\). The links of this representation to the insurance mathematics, in particular to the insurance premium \(H(X)\), are established and a renewal theoretic interpretation of \(H(X)\) is proposed.
