The life insurance

$\quad \,$ The EPV is

$$ {}_{k|1}A_{x} = 1 \cdot \ v(k+1) \cdot \ {}_kp_x \cdot \ q_{x+k} = 1 \cdot \ v(k+1) \cdot \ {}_{k|}q_{x} \, . $$

Compute ${}_{5|1}A_{65} = 1 \cdot \ v(6) \cdot \ {}_{5|}q_{65} = 1 \cdot \ v(6) \cdot \ {}_5p_{65} \cdot \ q_{70} $ for constant $i = 3\%$.

# Mortality rates and one-year survival probabilities
qx <- life_table$qx
px <- 1 - qx

# 5-year deferred mortality probability of (65) 
kpx <- prod(px[(65 + 1):(69 + 1)])
kqx <- kpx * qx[70 + 1]
