INSTRUCTIONS FOR OBTAINING THE APPROPRIATE

FACTOR FROM TABLES I TO III

I.

II.

Read off from the table the factors for officer's age at his last birthday and his--

(a) (b)

completed years of service,

completed years of service plus one year. Subtract I(a) from I(b), divide the difference by twelve and multiply the result by the number of completed months of service, if any, in excess of the completed years of service.

III. Add I(a) and II.

IV. Repeat steps to III for the officer's age at his

next birthday..?

V.

VI.

Divide the difference between III and IV by twelve and multiply by the number of completed months of age, if any, since the officer's last birthday.

If IV is greater than III, add V to III, if IV is less than III subtract V from III, VI is the factor required.

In calculating factors by interpolation in respect of Tables I to III the calculations should be rounded off to two decimal points and where this results in a difference of point nought one in either direction such difference should be ignored.
