Abstract
The study aimed to apply the whittaker Henderson Type B method in the graduation of mortality. The criterion for acceptability of a graduation method of this type is that M = F hS be minimum. The minimitation of M was approached by means of a matrix vector formulation of M. Hence, the criterion has been satisfied. The arbitrary constant h that gives the closes rates to the Philippine Inter-Company Mortality Table for the age 7-77 was determined. The graduation method was coded into a computer program using Turbo Pascal Version 5.0 language.
