Last survivor annuities

Could you please show me how the expected present value of last survivor annuities can be derived.

So how the ∫(bar(at) *fTu(t) )dt can be extended to get to bar(ax)+bar(ay)-bar(ayx)?

Thank you.

Hi Richard,

If we take any two numbers and add the biggest to the smallest then all we have done is add the two numbers up:

min{x,y} + max{x,y} = x + y

The same is true for streams of payments:

a(bar)xy + a(bar)xy(bar) = a(bar)x + a(bar)y *

and for future lifetimes:

Txy + Txy(bar) = Tx + Ty #

This should give you the relationship you want both directly (*) and by manipulating integrals (#)

Good luck!
John
