2 What are annuities? What are annuities? An annuity is a series of payments that could vary according to: timing of payment beginning of year (annuity-due) with fixed maturity n-year annuity-due time n-1 n time more frequently than once a year annuity-due payable m-thly 1 m 1 m 1 m 1 m 1 m 1 m 0 1 m 2 m m 1 2 m 1 m payable continuously continuous annuity 2 time end of year (annuity-immediate) n-year annuity-immediate time n-1 n time annuity-immediate payable m-thly 1 m m 1 1 m m 1 m 1 1 m 0 1 m 2 m m 1 2 m 2 time time varying benefits Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 2 / 44

5 Whole life annuity-due Whole life annuity-due Pays a benefit of a unit $1 at the beginning of each year that the annuitant (x) survives. The present value random variable is Y =ä K+1 where K, inshortfork x, is the curtate future lifetime of (x). The actuarial present value of a whole life annuity-due is ä x = E[Y ]=E X 1 ä K+1 = ä k+1 Pr[K = k] = k=0 k=0 k=0 1X 1 ä k+1 k qx = X ä k+1 k p x q x+k Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 5 / 44

6 Whole life annuity-due current payment technique Current payment technique By writing the PV random variable as Y = I(T >0) + vi(t >1) + v 2 I(T >2) + = one can immediately deduce that " 1 # X ä x = E[Y ]=E v k I(T >k) = = k=0 1X v k E[I(T >k)] = k=0 1X k=0 A straightforward proof of v k p k x = k=0 1X k k=0 1X v k I(T >k), k=0 1X v k Pr[T >k] k=0 1 Ex = X k=0 k=0 A 1 x: k. 1X 1 ä k+1 k qx = X v k k p x is in Example 5.1.

7 Whole life annuity-due -continued Current payment technique - continued The commonly used formula ä x = 1X k=0 payment technique for evaluating life annuities. v k p k x is the so-called current Indeed, this formula gives us another intuitive interpretation of what life annuities are: they are nothing but sums of pure endowments (you get a benefit each time you survive). The primary di erence lies in when you view the payments: one gives the series of payments made upon death, the other gives the payment made each time you survive.

23 Other types temporary life annuity-due Temporary life annuity-due Pays a benefit of a unit $1 at the beginning of each year so long as the annuitant (x) survives, for up to a total of n years, or n payments. The present value random variable is (ä Y = K+1, K < n ä n, K n =ä. min(k+1,n) The APV of an n-year life annuity-due can be expressed as ä x: n = E[Y ] = = X n 1 ä k+1 k=0 k=0 p k x q x+k +ä n p n x using the current payment technique nx 1 v k k p x.

24 Other types some useful formulas Some useful formulas Notice that Z = v min(k+1,n) is the PV random variable associated with an n-year endowment insurance, with death benefit payable at EOY. Similar to the case of the whole life, we can use this to derive: relationship to whole life insurance apple 1 ä x: n = E Z d = 1 d 1 A x: n. Alternatively, we write: A x: n =1 dä x: n. very important formula! the variance formula Var[Y ]= 1 d 2 Var[Z] = 1 h 2 d 2 A x: n A x: n i 2.

25 Other types deferred whole life annuity-due Deferred whole life annuity-due Pays a benefit of a unit $1 at the beginning of each year while the annuitant (x) survives from x + n onward. The PV random variable can be expressed in a number of ways: Y = ( 0, 0 apple K<n ä = n K+1 n vn ä K+1 n =ä K+1 ä n, K n. The APV of an n-year deferred whole life annuity can be expressed as n äx = E[Y ]= 1X k=n v k p k x = E n x ä x+n =ä x ä x: n. Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 12 / 44

26 Other types variance formula Variance of a deferred whole life annuity-due To derive the variance is not straightforward. The best strategy is to work with and use Y = ( 0, 0 apple K<n v n ä K+1 n, K n Var[Y ] = E[Y 2 ] (E[Y ]) 2 1X 2 = v 2n ä k+1 n k qx k=n Apply a change of variable of summation to say k = k variance of a whole life insurance issued to (x + n). The variance of Y finally can be expressed as Var[Y ]= 2 d v2n n p x ä 2 x+n äx+n + 2 ä n x 2 n äx n and then the 2 n äx. Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 13 / 44

34 Life annuity-immediate whole life Whole life annuity-immediate Procedures and principles for annuity-due can be adapted for annuity-immediate. Consider the whole life annuity-immediate, the PV random variable is clearly Y = a K so that APV is given by a x = E[Y ]= 1X k=0 a K p k x q x+k = 1X k=1 v k p k x. Relationship to life insurance: Y = 1 1 v K = 1 1 i i (1 + i)v K+1 leads to 1=ia x +(1+i)A x. Interpretation of this equation - to be discussed in class.

38 Life annuities with m-thly payments Life annuities with m-thly payments In practice, life annuities are often payable more frequently than once a year, e.g. monthly (m = 12), quarterly(m =4), or semi-annually (m =2). Here, we define the random variable K x (m),orsimplyk (m),tobethe complete future lifetime rounded down to the nearest 1/m-th of a year. For example, if the observed T = for a life (x) and m =4,thenthe observed K (4) is Indeed, we can write K (m) = 1 m bmt c, where bc is greatest integer (or floor) function.

39 Life annuities with m-thly payments whole life annuity-due Whole life annuity-due payable m times a year Consider a whole life annuity-due with payments made m times a year. Its PV random variable can be expressed as Y =ä (m) K (m) +(1/m) = 1 vk(m)+(1/m) d (m). The APV of this annuity is Variance is E[Y ]=ä (m) x Var[Y ]= = 1 m 1X v h/m h=0 h i Var v K(m) +(1/m) d (m) 2 = h/mpx = 1 2 (m) Ax A(m) x d (m). A (m) x 2 d (m) 2.

54 Special mortality laws Special mortality laws Just as in the case of life insurance valuation, we can derive nice explicit forms for life annuity formulas in the case where mortality follows: constant force (or Exponential distribution); or De Moivre s law (or Uniform distribution). Try deriving some of these formulas. You can approach them in a couple of ways: Know the results for the life insurance case, and then use the relationships between annuities and insurances. You can always derive it from first principles, usually working with the current payment technique. In the continuous case, one can use numerical approximations to evaluate the integral: trapezium (trapezoidal) rule repeated Simpson s rule Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 28 / 44

64 Other forms varying benefits Life annuities with varying benefits Some of these are discussed in details in Section You may try to remember the special symbols used, especially if the variation is a fixed unit of $1 (either increasing or decreasing). The most important thing to remember is to apply similar concept of discounting with life taught in the life insurance case (note: this works only for valuing actuarial present values): work with drawing the benefit payments as a function of time; and use then your intuition to derive the desired results.

65 Evaluating annuities Methods for evaluating annuity functions Section 5.11 Recursions: For example, in the case of a whole life annuity-due on (x), recall ä x =1+vp x ä x+1. Given a set of mortality assumptions, start with ä x = 1X v k k p x k=0 and then use the recursion to evaluate values for subsequent ages. UDD: deaths are uniformly distribution between integral ages. Woolhouse s approximations Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 31 / 44

66 Evaluating annuities UDD Uniform Distribution of Deaths (UDD) Under the UDD assumption, we have derived in the previous chapter that the following holds: A (m) x = i i (m) A x Then use the relationship between annuities and insurance: ä (m) x = 1 A(m) x d (m) This leads us to the following result when UDD holds: where ä (m) x = (m)ä x (m), (m) = s (m) ä (m) = i 1 1 i (m) d d (m) (m) = s(m) 1 1 d (m) = i i(m) i (m) d (m) Lecture: Weeks 9-11 (Math 3630) Annuities Fall Valdez 32 / 44

67 Evaluating annuities Woolhouse s formulas Woolhouse s approximate fomulas The Woolhouse s approximate formulas for evaluating annuities are based on the Euler-Maclaurin formula for numerical integration: Z 1 0 g(t)dt = h 1X g(kh) k=0 h h2 g(0) g0 (0) h g00 (0) + for some positive constant h. Thisformulaisthenappliedtog(t) =v t t p x which leads us to g 0 (t) = v t t p x ( µ x+t ).
