We obtain some sufficient conditions for mutually asymptotic equivalence among solutions of some defective renewal equations, where the related distributions can be heavy-tailed but are not required to be subexponential. Particularly, the paper make clearer the asymptotically equivalent relations between the ruin probability and the function introduced by Gerber et al. [H.U. Gerber, M.J. Goovaerts, and R. Kaas, On the probability and severity of ruin, Astin Bull., 17:151–163, 1987] for the standard renewal risk model. The results we obtain modify, improve, and extend some existing results.
