“…In literature, many authors have explored the ageing properties of T (x) [11]. The distributional and ageing properties of curtate future lifetime K(x), the greatest integer less than or equal to T (x) have been already studied [6]. To the best of our knowledge, the distributional properties of T (x) have not been studied so far.…”

Distributional properties of continuous future lifetime of an individual aged x have been studied. The expressions for moments, coefficients of skewness and kurtosis have been derived when newborn's lifetime follows different distributions. The maximum likelihood (ML) estimation of the parameters of future lifetime's distributions has been explored for whole life and term assurance contracts. Simulations have been carried out to find the ML estimates and the corresponding root mean square errors.
