Arguments

px

A numeric value. The value of the premium paid in each period.

x

An integer. The age of the insuree.

h

data

A data.frame containing the mortality table, with the first column being the age and the second one, the probability of death.

prop

A numeric value. It represents the proportion of the mortality table used (between 0 and 1).

assumption

A character string. The assumption used for fractional ages ("UDD" for uniform distribution of deaths, "constant" for constant force of mortality and "none" if there is no fractional coverage).

cap

A numeric type value. The annualized value of the payment.
