We describe some useful models for the number of observations obtained by truncation or translation of usual models given by integer-valued random variables: Poisson, binomial, geometric, and negative binomial. We present an efficient random search algorithm for the computation of the quantiles of the relevant statistics, we describe an interval estimation procedure for the extended model, and we propose a parametric bootstrap simulation study to validate the proposed procedure.&lt;/p&gt;
