FA-63368 / Actuarial life tables / Member archive

Life table person-years and expectation: Person-years start from the wrong survivor count · case 03

Life expectancies are overstated by about one year.

Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 8 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input l (survivors by age, last entry is the open interval) and m_open (per mille central rate of the open interval, <=0 -> 'invalid open rate'). L_x = l_{x+1} + d_x/2, L_open = l_open/m, T_x = sum of L from x, e_x = T_x/l_x rounded to 4 places (None where l_x=0).

Why this case matters

Life-table arithmetic compounds across ages, so one misplaced index or assumption shifts every downstream value.

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
