Problem 85

To determine age-specific mortality, a group of individuals, all born at the same time, is followed over time. If \(N(t)\) denotes the number still alive at time \(t\), then \(N(t) / N(0)\) is the fraction surviving at time \(t\). The quantity \(r(t)\), called the hazard rate function, measures the rate at which individuals die at time \(t\); that is, \(r(t) d t\) is the probability that an individual who is alive at time \(t\) dies during the infinitesimal time interval \((t, t+d t)\). The cumulative hazard during the time interval \([0, t], \int_{0}^{t} r(s) d s\), can be estimated as \(-\ln \frac{N(t)}{N(0)}\). Show that the cumulative hazard during the time interval \([t, t+1], \int_{t}^{t+1} r(s) d s\), can be estimated as \(-\ln \frac{N(t+1)}{N(t)}\).
