3 The life table What is the life table? A tabular presentation of the mortality evolution of a cohort group of lives. Begin with l 0 number of lives (e.g. 100,000) - called the radix of the life table. (Expected) number of lives who are age x: l x = l 0 S 0 (x) = l 0 p x 0 (Expected) number of deaths between ages x and x + 1: d x = l x l x+1. (Expected) number of deaths between ages x and x + n: d n x = l x l x+n. Conditional on survival to age x, the probability of dying within n years is: nqx = n d x /l x = (l x l x+n )/l x. Conditional on survival to age x, the probability of living to reach age x + n is: n p x = 1 nqx = l x+n /l x. Lecture: Weeks 4-5 (Math 3630) Life Tables and Selection Fall Valdez 3 / 29

5 The life table Radix of the life table The radix of the life table does not have to start at age 0, e.g. start with age x 0, so that the table starts with radix l x0. The limiting age of the table is usually denoted by ω, in which case the table gives entries for only a period of ω x 0. All the formulas still work, e.g. conditional on survival to age x, the probability of surviving to reach age x + n is: npx = 1 nqx = l x+n. l x Note that among l x independent lives who have reached age x, the number of survivors L n within n years is a Binomial random variable with parameters l x and n p x so that E(L n ) = l x p n x.

6 The life table Table 3.1 Revised example 3.1 Using Table 3.1, page 43 of DHW, calculate the following: the probability that (30) will survive another 5 years the probability that (39) will survive to reach age 40 the probability that (30) will die within 10 years the probability that (30) dies between ages 36 and 38 Lecture: Weeks 4-5 (Math 3630) Life Tables and Selection Fall Valdez 6 / 29

8 The life table additional useful formulas Additional useful formulas From a life table, the following formulas can also easily be verified (or use your intuition): l x = k=0 d x+k: the number of survivors at age x should be equal to the number of deaths in each year of age for all the following years. ndx = l x l x+n = n 1 k=0 d x+k: the number of deaths within n years should be equal to the number of deaths in each year of age for the next n years. Finally, the probability that (x) survives the next n years but dies the following m years after that can be derived using: n mqx = n p x n+mpx = d m x+n l x = l x+n l x+n+m l x.

9 The life table force of mortality The force of mortality It is easy to show that the force of mortality can be expressed in terms of life table function as: Thus, in effect, we can also write µ x = 1 l x dl x dx. l x = l 0 exp ( x 0 ) µ z dz. With a simple change of variable, it is easy to see also that µ x+t = 1 dl x+t l x+t dt It follows immediately that: d dt p t x = p t x µ x+t. = 1 d t p x t p x dt.

10 The life table curtate expectation of life Curtate expectation of life Recall the expected value of K x is called the curtate expectation of life. It can be expressed now as E[K x ] = e x = k=1 kpx = k=1 l x+k l x. The n-year temporary curtate expectation of life is e x : n = n k=1 kpx = n k=1 l x+k l x, which gives the average number of completed years lived over the interval (x, x + n] for a life (x).

14 Fractional age assumptions Fractional age assumptions When adopting a life table (which may contain only integer ages), some assumptions are needed about the distribution between the integers. The two most common assumptions (or interpolations) used are (where 0 t 1): 1 linear interpolation (also called UDD assumption): l x+t = (1 t)l x + tl x+1 2 exponential interpolation (equivalent to constant force assumption): log l x+t = (1 t) log l x + t log l x+1 Lecture: Weeks 4-5 (Math 3630) Life Tables and Selection Fall Valdez 14 / 29

17 Fractional age assumptions examples Illustrative example 5 Assume the Uniform Distribution of Death (UDD) assumption holds between integer ages. You are given: 0.5p65 = p66 = 0.92 Calculate the probability that (65) will survive the next two years. Lecture: Weeks 4-5 (Math 3630) Life Tables and Selection Fall Valdez 17 / 29
18 Fractional age assumptions Fractional part of the year lived Denote by R x the fractional part of a year lived in the year of death. Then we have T x = K x + R x where T x is the time-until-death and K x is the curtate future lifetime of (x). We can describe the joint probability distribution of (K x, R x ) as Pr [(K x = k) (R x s)] = Pr[k < T x k + s] = p k x q s x+k, for k = 0, 1,... and for 0 < s < 1. The UDD assumption is equivalent to the assumption that the fractional part R x occurs uniformly during the year, i.e. R x U(0, 1). It can be demonstrated that K x and R x are independent in this case. Lecture: Weeks 4-5 (Math 3630) Life Tables and Selection Fall Valdez 18 / 29
19 Select and ultimate tables Select and ultimate tables Group of lives underwritten for insurance coverage usually has different mortality than the general population (some test required before insurance is offered). Mortality then becomes a function of age [x] at selection (e.g. policy issue, onset of disability) and duration t since selection. For select tables, notation such as t q [x], t p [x], and l [x]+t, are then used. However, impact of selection diminishes after some time - the select period (denoted by r). In effect, we have q [x]+j = q x+j, for j r. Lecture: Weeks 4-5 (Math 3630) Life Tables and Selection Fall Valdez 19 / 29
