ACTEX MLC Study ManualChapter 10 Multiple State Models 1. To state the assumptions underlying a multiple state model 2. To model disability income model and permanent disability model as multiple ... state models 3. To calculate transition and occupancy probabilities for multiple state models 4. To calculate the premiums and reserves for multiple state models In this chapter, we discuss multiple state models. We shall see how various non-traditional insurances can be analyzed under the framework of multiple state models. In what follows we use the notation o(h) quite often. A function g is said to be o(h) if Jim g(h) = 0. A function is o(h) if it shrinks to 0 quicker than h. For example, g 1(h) = Ii and h->0 h g2(h) = h 11 are o(h). However, g3(h) =hand g4(h) =sin hare not o(h) because the limits are I. It is obvious from the theorem of limits that if/and g are o(h), then/+ g,f- g,fg, and cf(where c is a constant) are also o(h). As a result, we write o(h) ± o(h) = o(h), o(h) x o(h) = o(h), c x o(h) = o(h). Before we talk about the setting of a multiple state model, let us review the single decrement model and multiple decrement model in Chapters 1 - 7 and Chapters 8 - 9.

So you can see why the approximation" di q_w ~ µx+idt for small dt" holds. For this model, the probability for (x) to stay in state 0 (alive) for a period of length tis 1 Px =exp(- J~µx+sds). The probability for (x) to enter state l (dead) on or before time tis ,qx = J~ ,pxµx+sds. The Double Decrement Model In multiple decrements, what we need are the various forces of decrement. In the double decrement model, they are 2 modes of decrements, say, accidental death (1) and death due to other causes (2). 1. Accidental 0. Alive 2.
