METHODS Standard life-table methods using age-specific all-cause mortality and population data from 1981 to 2003 we...

We provide a simple VBA/Excel program that decomposes by age a difference between two values of a life-table based quantity. For example, one might want to know what are contributions of different ages into the total difference between two populations in: values of life expectancy at birth or of temporary life expectancy between exact ages 20 and 65 or of standard deviation of ages at death ove...
