Where can you find life insurance mortality tables?

A mortality table, also called an actuarial life table, is available at SchuermanInsurance.com and LifeExpectancyCalculators.com. These tables help insurance companies determine rates for life insurance policies.

There are two types of mortality tables that fall within the actuarial life table category: the period life table and the cohort life table. A period life table displays the projected mortality rates for a specific time period and population. A cohort life table shows the overall mortality rate for a specific population's lifetime. For that reason, it is often called a generation life table. These tables are used in a variety of ways to help gauge life expectancy.
