Abstract: Abstract The one-year probability of death q x has to be estimated from statistical data; these data will be generated by a certain group of lives (e.g. policyholders), which has been under observation for a certain period (one or more calendar years), the observation period. The estimated value of q x will be denoted by $${\hat q_x}$$ .
