Abstract :Distributional properties of continuous future lifetime of an individual aged x have been studied. The expressions for moments, coecients of skewness and kurtosis have been derived when newborn`s lifetime follows dierent distributions. The maximum likelihood insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(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.
