Widows and Orphans Pension.

EXAMPLE (2)—An officer aged 19 next birthday commences to contribute as a bachelor, and five years later, when aged 24 next birthday, marries; his wife's age being 20 next birthday. The quantity found from Table A in accordance with Rule I (a) will be taken for the actual ages (husband 24 and wife 20) and will be .683. With respect to the current annual contribution at marriage, assume that the officer's age is 25 (his actual age plus one) so that the quantity from Table B will be 7.00.

This officer receives an increment of salary when aged 39, when his wife's age is 35. Assume as before that the ages are 40 and 35, respectively, so that the quantity found from Table B will be 3.61.

NOTE. It will be observed that this method takes account of the actual number of years for which the annual contribution will run. In EXAMPLE (1), when the officer receives the increment of salary at age 22 he has contributed for five years, so that at the expiration of 30 years his contributions will cease. Similarly, in EXAMPLE (2), when the officer marries at age 24, he also has contributed for five years, so that although he is two years older than the officer in EXAMPLE (1), yet the unexpired period of contribution is the same in each case, and the wife's age is in each instance 20, so that no important error is involved in using the same tabular quantity for the two cases.

TABLE C. The quantities are given for the same ages as in Table A. Ages of husbands and wives below and beyond are to be treated as in using that Table.

For the intermediate ages of wives interpolate by first differences as explained above, except that it must be noted that in this Table an addition to the age of the wife results in a deduction from the quantity given in the Table.

To find the quantity corresponding to the ages of a husband and wife aged respectively 35 and 27 next birthday.

The quantity for ages 35 and 25 given in the Table is 2.074.

The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the Table is 1.974.

So that the addition of five years to the age of the wife results in a deduction of .100 from the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25.

An addition of two years to the age of the wife accordingly results by proportion in a deduction of two-fifths of .100 from the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25.

Two-fifths of .100 is .04, which deducted from 2.074 leaves 2.034, which is the required quantity corresponding to ages 35 and 27.

These rules may be cited as the Widows and Orphans Pension Rules.

The quantity found from Table A in accordance with Rule I (a) will be taken for the actual ages (husband 24 and wife 20) and will be .683. With respect to the current annual contribution at marriage, assume that the officer's age is 25 (his actual age plus one) so that the quantity from Table B will be 7.00.

This officer receives an increment of salary when aged 39, when his wife's age is 35. Assume as before that the ages are 40 and 35, respectively, so that the quantity found from Table B will be 3.61.

NOTE. It will be observed that this method takes account of the actual number of years for which the annual contribution will run. In EXAMPLE (1), when the officer receives the increment of salary at age 22 he has contributed for five years, so that at the expiration of 30 years his contributions will cease. Similarly, in EXAMPLE (2), when the officer marries at age 24, he also has contributed for five years, so that although he is two years older than the officer in EXAMPLE (1), yet the unexpired period of contribution is the same in each case, and the wife's age is in each instance 20, so that no important error is involved in using the same tabular quantity for the two cases.

TABLE C. The quantities are given for the same ages as in Table A. Ages of husbands and wives below and beyond are to be treated as in using that Table.

For the intermediate ages of wives interpolate by first differences as explained above, except that it must be noted that in this Table an addition to the age of the wife results in a deduction from the quantity given in the Table.

To find the quantity corresponding to the ages of a husband and wife aged respectively 35 and 27 next birthday.

The quantity for ages 35 and 25 given in the

Table is

2.074.

The quantity for ages 35 and 30 given in the

Table is

1.974.

So that the addition of five years to the age of the wife results in a deduction of .100 from the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25.

An addition of two years to the age of the wife accordingly results by proportion in a deduction of two-fifths of .100 from the quantity given in the Table for ages 35 and 25.

Two-fifths of .100.04, which deducted from 2.074 leaves 2.034, which is the required quantity corresponding to ages 35 and 27.

These rules may be cited as the Widows and Orphans Pension Rules.
