Let $X_1, X_2, ldots$ independent and identically distributed discrete random variables with support contained in $mathbbN$ and let $N=X_1+1$. How can I calculate the moment generating function of
$$S_N=X_1+cdots+X_N?$$
Thanks for any help.
My attepmt: We have that
$$M_S_N(t)=E[e^rS_N]=E[e^r0]Pr(N=0)+sum_n=1^infty E[e^r(X_1+cdots+X_n)|N=n]Pr(N=n) $$

If you provide some context and share your attempts on solving the problem you are more likely to get responses.
