ivPREFACEThis study supplement is intended to be an aid to candidates studying foreither Exam MLC (Models for Life Contingencies) of the Society of Actuariesor Exam 3L (Life Contingencies and Statistics) of the Casualty ActuarialSociety. Each section of this study supplement contains key life contingenciesconcepts and major life contingencies formulas with brief interpretations forspecific Exam MLC/3L topics. This study supplement is NOT meant totake the place of an exam’s required text book or a proper study guide. Forexample, there are no detailed explanations of topics that would be found ina text book and no worked examples of the material that would be found ina study guide.For candidates studying for Exam 3L, this study supplement onlycovers the life contingencies material on that exam. That is, this studysupplement does NOT cover any of the statistics material on Exam 3L.This study supplement is meant to outline key life contingencies conceptsand major life contingencies formulas associated with Exam MLC or Exam3L, and to provide exercises that are meant to test a candidate’s basic knowledge of the material and to improve the candidate’s speed in working withcertain concepts and formulas. If the candidate can master the exercises inthis study supplement, the candidate should be in a good position to tackleactual past Exam MLC and/or Exam 3L questions. Many of the exercises inthis study supplement are based on past homework and midterm questionsthat I used in teaching life contingencies classes at the University of Illinoisat Urbana-Champaign. In some cases, the exercise answer choices arerounded. Choose the letter of the answer choice that is closest toyour own answer.Once the exercises in this study supplement have been mastered, the candidate can refer to the listing of past Exam MLC and Exam 3L questions at theend of each section for a more advanced test of the candidate’s understandingof the material. Web links to past Exam MLC and Exam 3L questions canbe found in Appendix A of this study supplement. Also, some Exam MLCexercises in this study supplement will utilize “Multi-State Model Examples”and the ”Standard Select Survival Model,” each from Dickson et al; these

vfigures are provided in Appendix B of this study supplement.For candidates enrolled in the Midwestern Actuarial Forum’s Exam MLC& 3L Seminar, it is expected that each candidate will have read the requiredstudy materials for either Exam MLC or Exam 3L mentioned in the exam’ssyllabus. The candidate is also expected to have read the relevant sectionsof this study supplement and also have worked its relevant exercises PRIORto sitting for the seminar. Furthermore, it is expected that each candidatewill have worked as many of the past Exam MLC and Exam 3L questionsas possible. Exam 3L candidates should attempt problems from the prior 3Lexams first before attempting any problems from prior MLC exams. Also,some sections are marked “Exam MLC Only;” as you may have guessed,candidates preparing for Exam 3L can skip those sections. I will rely heavilyon candidate’s asking questions regarding these study supplement exercisesand past Exam MLC and Exam 3L questions DURING the seminar; often,working exercises and past exam questions identifies issues that once resolvedwill enhance the candidate’s understanding of the material. I would alsocontend that candidates will only get the most out of this seminar if theyhave sufficiently studied for their exam beforehand.Candidates should bring a printed or electronic copy of this studysupplement with them to the seminar. Candidates should also printcopies of all tables provided during the exam they will be writing(Exam MLC or Exam 3L) - please refer to Appendix A of this studysupplement. Candidates should also bring copies of any past Exam MLCand/or Exam 3L questions that they wish to discuss during the seminar.Despite proofreading, it is possible that this study supplement may containtypos. If there are any questions regarding possible typos, or anything else,please e-mail me at: [email protected] of luck in your exam preparation!Regards:-Paul H. Johnson, Jr., PhD

1SURVIVAL MODELS AND LIFE TABLES11.1Key ConceptsLet (x) denote a life aged x.Future Lifetime: Tx time-until-death for (x), a continuous random variable (in years).Tx is also called the future lifetime random variable. Tx may also bewritten as T (x) or T .Special case: T0 age-at-death for (0), where (0) denotes a newborn life.Note: T0 x Tx . Fx (t) t qx P r(Tx t)This is the cumulative distribution function of Tx , “the probability that(x) dies within t years.” The q-notation will be used most of the time.F0 (t) can also be written more simply as F (t). Sx (t) t px P r(Tx t)This is the survival function function of Tx ,“the probability that (x) survives for at least t years.” The words “at least” are often omitted. Thep-notation will be used most of the time.S0 (t) can also be written more simply as S(t) or s(t). From above: t qx t px 1.“(x) will either survive or die within t years.” S0 (x t) S0 (x)t px“The probability that (0) survives x t years is equivalent to (0) firstsurviving x years to age x, and then surviving t additional years to agex t.”

2 u t px (u px )(t px u )“The probability that (x) survives u t years is equivalent to (x) firstsurviving u years to age x u, and then surviving t additional years toage x u t.” Be careful:u t qx6 (u qx )(t qx u ).“The right-hand side implies that it is possible for (x) to die within uyears, then somehow come back to life at age x u in order to die againwithin t years. This, of course, is not possible and cannot be equal tothe left-hand side which is the probability (x) dies within u t years.” u t qx u t qx- u qx u px -u t px (u px )(t qx u )This is a u-year deferred probability of death, “the probability that (x)dies between ages x u and x u t.” Note: 0 t qx t qx . Note: 1 qx , 1 px , andu 1 qxare written as qx , px , and u qx , respectively.qx may be referred to as a mortality rate, and px may be referred to as asurvival rate.

3Force of Mortality: µx µ(x) force of mortality at age x, given survival to age x. This issometimes called the “hazard rate” or “failure rate.”d[S (x)]0dµx dxS0 (x) dx[ln S0 (x)]“This is the instantaneous death rate for a life at age x.” µx t µx (t) force of mortality at age x t, given survival to x t.d[p ]µx t dtt pt xx dtd [ln t px ]“This is the instantaneous death rate for a life at age x t. Here, thevariable is time after age x. You could also obtain µx t by replacing x inµx with x t.” t px exp[ R x txµs ds] exp[ Rt0µx s ds] If c 0, then µ x s cµx s t p x (t px )c .For constant k, then µ x s µx s k t p x (e kt )(t px ).The constant k should be such that µ x s 0. fx (t) t px µx t probability density function of Tx .This comes from the above formula for µx t , recognizing that fx (t) dddt [t qx ] dt [t px ]. t qx t px Rt0 s px µx s dsR u t qx ts px µx s dsR u tus px µx s ds

4Curtate Future Lifetime: Kx curtate future lifetime for (x), a discrete random variable.Kx bTx c integer part of Tx . That is, Kx represents the complete number of future years survived by (x), where any fractional time survivedin the year of death is ignored. Note: Kx 0, 1, 2.Kx may also be written as K(x) or K. k qx P r(Kx k) P r(k Tx k 1) for k 0, 1, 2.This is the probability mass function of Kx , “the probability that (x) diesin the (k 1)st year, between ages x k and x k 1.” k 1 qx 0 qx 1 qx . k qx“The probability that (x) dies within k 1 years is the sum of theprobabilities that (x) dies in the first year, the second year, ., the (k 1)st year.”

5Other Features of Tx and Kx Distributions: e̊x E(Tx ) R 0t(t px )(µx t )dt R 0t px dtThis is the complete expectation of life for (x), the average time-untildeath for (x). That is, (x) is expected to die at age x e̊x . V ar(Tx ) E(Tx2 ) - [E(Tx )]2 2 e̊x:n E[min(Tx , n)] R 0tt px dt - [e̊x ]2Rn0 t px dtThis is the n-year temporary complete life expectancy for (x), the average number of years out of the next n years that (x) survives.This expectation helps define the recursion: e̊x e̊x:n n px e̊x n .“The average number of future years that (x) survives is the averagenumber of years out of the first n years that (x) survives plus the averagenumber of years (x) survives after the first n years (accounting for theprobability that (x) survives the first n years).”Similarly: e̊x:m n e̊x:m m px e̊x m:n . The 100α-th percentile of the distribution of Tx , πα , is such that:πα q x α for 0 α 1.Special case: α 0.50; π.50 is called the median future lifetime for (x).

7Special Mortality Laws:de Moivre’s Law: Tx has a continuous uniform distribution.The limiting age is ω such that 0 x x t ω. µx 1ω x(Note: x 6 ω) S0 (x) ω xω F0 (x) xω t px ω x tω x t qx tω x u t qx tω x fx (t) t px µx t e̊x 1ω x(Note: x 6 ω)ω x2 e̊x:n nn px n2 n qx“(x) can either survive n years with probability n px , or die within n yearswith probability n qx . Surviving n years contributes n to the expectation.Dying within n years contributes n2 to the expectation as future lifetimehas a uniform distribution - (x), on average, would die halfway throughthe n-year period.” V ar(Tx ) ex (ω x)212ω x 12 V ar(Kx ) (ω x)212-112

8Modified/Generalized de Moivre’s Law: Tx has a beta distribution.The limiting age is ω such that 0 x x t ω. Also, there is aparameter α 0. µx αω x S0 (x) (Note: x 6 ω)¡ ω x αω¡ α F0 (x) 1 - ω xω¡ α t px ω x tω x¡ α t qx 1 - ω x tω x¡ t αNote: t qx 6 ω x. e̊x ω xα 1 V ar(Tx ) α(ω x)2(α 1)2 (α 2)Note: α 1 results in uniform distribution/de Moivre’s Law.

9Constant Force of Mortality: Tx has an exponential distribution, x 0. There is another parameter that denotes the force of mortality: µ 0. µx µ S0 (x) e µx F0 (x) 1 - e µx t px e µt (px )t t qx 1 - e µt e̊x 1µ e̊x:n 1 e µnµ V ar(Tx ) ex 1µ2pxqx V ar(Kx ) px(qx )2Note1: A constant force of mortality implies that “age does not matter.”This can easily be seen from t px e µt ; x does not appear on the righthand side.Note2: Tx has an exponential distribution implies that Kx has a geometricdistribution.

11Life Tables:Given a survival model with survival probabilities t px , one can construct alife table, also called a mortality table, from some initial age x0 (usually age0) to a maximum age ω (a limiting age). Let lx0 , the radix of the life table, represent the number of lives age x0 .lx0 is an arbitrary positive number. lω 0. lx t (lx )(t px ) for x0 x x t ω.lx t represents the expected number of survivors to age x t out of lxindividuals aged x. t dx lx - lx t (lx )(t qx ) for x0 x x t ω.represents the expected number of deaths between ages x and x tout of lx lives aged x.t dxNote 1: 1 dx is written as dx .Note 2: If n 1, 2., then n dx dx dx 1 . dx n 1 . t dx u lx u - lx u t (lx )(u t qx ).The Illustrative Life Table is the life table that is provided to the candidatetaking Exam MLC or Exam 3L. Some questions from either exam will involveIllustrative Life Table calculations. A web link to this table (and ALL examtables) is provided for each exam in Appendix A of this study supplement.

12Fractional Age Assumptions:Life Tables are usually defined for integer ages x and integer times t. Fora quantity that involves fractional ages and/or fractional times, one has tomake an assumption about the survival distribution between integer ages;that is, one has to interpolate the value of the quantity within each year ofage. Two common interpolation assumptions follow.Uniform Distribution of Deaths (UDD):One linearly interpolates within each year of age. For integer age x and 0 s s t 1: lx s lx - sdx (1 s)lx (s)lx 1 . This is a linear function for s. s qx sqx s px 1 - sqx µx s qx1 sqx(does not hold at s 1) fx (s) s px µx s qx (does not hold at s 1) s qx t sqx1 tqx e̊x ex 12 V ar(Tx ) V ar(Kx ) e̊x:n ex:n 11212 n qx Note: uniform distribution/de Moivre’s Law has the property of UDDacross all ages up to the limiting age ω.Furthermore, uniform distribution/de Moivre’s Law may be expressed aslx k(ω x) for 0 x ω where k 0.

13Constant Force of Mortality (Exam MLC Only):One exponentially interpolates within each year of age. For integer age xand 0 s s t 1: lx s lx psx ln[lx s ] (1 s) ln[lx ] s ln[lx 1 ] s px psx s qx 1 - psx µx s -ln px µx (does not hold at s 1) fx (s) s px µx s -ln px (psx ) (does not hold at s 1) s qx t 1 - psx
