Projection of mortality tables and their influence on insurance embedded value
Filka, Jakub ; Pešta, Michal (advisor) ; Cipra, Tomáš (referee)
We study development of mortality tables from 1950 to present in Czech Republic. Our aim is to look at the 6 basic models, which can be potentially used to describe behavior of dying for people over 60 years. Models that are being investigated vary from generally accepted Gompertz-Makeham model to logistic models of Thatcher and Kannisto. We also introduce Coale-Kisker and Heligman- Pollard model. Our analysis is concentrated mostly on projecting abilities of given models to the highest ages. Especially for women, where data do not show such dispersion as in the case of men, there is a visible trend that can be described better by using logistic models instead of Gompertz-Makeham model, which has a tendency to overestimate the probabilities of dying in higher ages.

Autocorrelation and decomposition methods in economic time series analysis
Filka, Jakub ; Zichová, Jitka (advisor) ; Cipra, Tomáš (referee)
The goal of this bachelor thesis is to give a basic theoretical background for working with time series with the usage of autocorrelation and decomposition methods, as well as to apply these methods on real data in selected software. The interpretation of the results is closely related to the comparison of advantages and disadvantages of the methods. We have used the software Wolfram Mathematica and NCSS. The main contribution of the thesis is the connection of both theoretical and practical approach, which was not performed similarly in Czech or Slovak literature in the time of elaborating the thesis. Keywords: time series, autocorrelation methods, decomposive methods, Wolfram Mathematica Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org)
