(i) n m q represens he probabiliy of deah of a life currenly aged beween ages + n and + n + m, i.e. as required. F (n + m) F (n) n+m n f ()d n+m n p µ + d (ii) p ep{ 1 µ +d} and 1 µ +d µ +.5. Hence p ep{ µ +.5 } and µ +.5 log(p ). Clearly also µ.5 log(p 1 ). Therefore µ 1 2 (µ µ.5 ) 1 2 (log(p ) + log(p 1 )). (iii) Use F () / o ge µ f() F () d d log( F ()) d d (log( 1 )) 2(1 ), and hence µ 84 1/ (i) We have where now p (1) + µ (1) ep + µ (1) y dy, y dy Bc c z dz Bc e z log(c) dz Bc log(c) (c 1). This leads o he form g c (c 1) for B/log(c) log(g) as required. (ii) This is similar, wih he era facor ep{ Ady} s for s e A. (iii) Jus calculae / p ep{ µ y dy} ep{ A( log() )} (/e) A.

Think of µ (1) o be from a general life able, bu of a populaion wih a cerain disease or oher risks causing heir moraliy o be higher han in ha lifeable. One way o epress his increased moraliy is by so-called proporional hazards, here proporionaliy facor 2. (i) n p (2) ep{ 2 n µ(1) +sds} ( n p (1) ) 2 as required. (ii) Under he Gomperz law np (2) g 2c (c n 1) n p (1) +a g c+a (c n 1) if and only if c a 2, i.e. a log(2)/ log(c). This is saying ha, under he Gomperz law, he model wih moraliy doubled is he same as a model wih age shifed appropriaely. The laer is anoher way of epressing he fac ha a populaion wih higher moraliy may behave like an older populaion. For general moraliy laws, hese wo models are differen. 4. (i) We spli ino deah benefis during he period and survaval o end of period, hen use q +k 1 p +k : A :n kp q +k v k+1 + n p v n k n 2 kp v k+1 kp p +k v k+1 k k vä :n jp v k j1 vä :n a :.

The second erm akes away he benefi of 1 if alive a he end of he year, ecep in year n. Wha remains is he paymen a he end of he year of deah (or n if earlier), and his is he cash flow of an endowmen assurance, as required. (ii) We calculae ä d(iä) kp v k d kp v k (k +1) k k kp v k (1 (1 v)(k +1)) k kp v k+1 (k +1) k j+1p v j+1 (j +1) j ( k p k+1 p )v k+1 (k +1) k kp q +k v k+1 (k +1)(IA). k (IA) pays 1 for each beginning of a year we were alive, paymen is a he end of he year of deah. ä pays one for each beginning of a year we were alive, paymen is a he beginning of each of hese years. d(iä) akes away he ineres we earn on he early paymens so ha he accumulaion a he ime of deah is (IA). 5. (a) Clearly b a q +a 1 b a p +a equals 1 b p / a p if and only if b a p +a a p bp. This is rue by he consisency condiion, in fac, his is he consisency condiion. (b) Deahs uniformly disribued over he age year (, + 1) means ha which is he same as In paricular, we have P(a T b T 1) b a for all a b 1, P( + a T + b T +1)b a. P(T T 1) P(T ) P(T 1) q q p 1 q 1 q, and so, by (a), b aq +a 1 1 bq 1 aq (b a)q 1 aq.

Now use he consisency condiion o ge as ε. µ + 1 ε P(T + ε T >) P( <T + ε) εp(t >) P( + <T + + ε T >) εp(t >+ T >) P( + <T + + ε)/p(t >) εp(t >+ )/P(T >) 1 ε P(T + + ε T >+ ) µ +, (iii) By definiion p P(T >). We defined he force of moraliy as infiniesimal survival probabiliy and can wrie his in erms of p as µ + lim ε p +ε p ε p p p (log( p )) This differenial equaion is solved by simple inegraion log( p ) µ +s ds + c p e c ep From p P(T ) 1, we ge c, hence he resul. µ +s ds. 7.

For (ii)-(iv), he ime of he paymen is now a coninuous random variable.
