Multiple-life-insurances: Multiple lifes insurances and annuities

In spedygiorgio/lifecontingencies: Financial and Actuarial Mathematics for Life Contingencies

Multiple lifes insurances and annuities

Description

Function to evalate the multiple lives insurances and annuities

Usage

Axyzn(tablesList, x, n, i, m, k = 1, status = "joint", type = "EV", 
power=1)
axyzn(tablesList, x, n, i, m, k = 1, status = "joint", type = "EV", 
power=1, payment="advance")

Arguments

tablesList	A list whose elements are either lifetable or actuarialtable class objects.
x	A vector of the same size of tableList that contains the initial ages.
n	Lenght of the insurance.
i	Interest rate
m	Deferring period.
k	Fractional payment frequency.
status	Either "joint" for the joint-life status model or "last" for the last-survivor status model (can be abbreviated).
type	A string, either "EV" for expected value of the actuarial present value (default) or "ST" for one stochastic realization of the underlying present value of benefits. Alternatively, one can use "expected" or "stochastic" respectively (can be abbreviated).
power	The power of the APV. Default is 1 (mean).
payment	The Payment type, either "advance" for the annuity due (default) or "arrears" for the annuity immediate. Alternatively, one can use "due" or "immediate" respectively (can be abbreviated).

Details

In theory, these functions apply the same concept of life insurances on one head on multiple heads.

Value

The insurance value is returned.

Note

These functions are the more general version of axyn and Axyn.

	data(soaLt)
	soa08Act=with(soaLt, new("actuarialtable",interest=0.06,
	x=x,lx=Ix,name="SOA2008"))
	#evaluate and life-long annuity for an aged 65
	listOfTables=list(soa08Act, soa08Act) 
	#Check actuarial equality
	axyzn(listOfTables,x=c(60,70),status="last")
	axn(listOfTables[[1]],60)+axn(listOfTables[[2]],70)-
	axyzn(listOfTables,x=c(60,70),status="joint")
