Suppose I have a data df
of some insurance policies.
library(tidyverse)
library(lubridate)
#Example data
d <- as.Date("2020-01-01", format = "%Y-%m-%d")
set.seed(50)
df <- data.frame(id = 1:10,
activation_dt = round(runif(10)*100,0) +d,
expiry_dt = d+round(runif(10)*100,0)+c(rep(180,5), rep(240,5)))
> df
id activation_dt expiry_dt
1 1 2020-03-12 2020-08-07
2 2 2020-02-14 2020-07-26
3 3 2020-01-21 2020-09-01
4 4 2020-03-18 2020-07-07
5 5 2020-02-21 2020-07-27
6 6 2020-01-05 2020-11-04
7 7 2020-03-11 2020-11-20
8 8 2020-03-06 2020-10-03
9 9 2020-01-05 2020-09-04
10 10 2020-01-12 2020-09-14
I want to see how many policies were active during each month. That I have done by the following method.
# Getting required result
df %>% arrange(activation_dt) %>%
pivot_longer(cols = c(activation_dt, expiry_dt),
names_to = "event",
values_to = "event_date") %>%
mutate(dummy = ifelse(event == "activation_dt", 1, -1)) %>%
mutate(dummy2 = floor_date(event_date, "month")) %>%
arrange(dummy2) %>% group_by(dummy2) %>%
summarise(dummy=sum(dummy)) %>%
mutate(dummy = cumsum(dummy)) %>%
select(dummy2, dummy)
# A tibble: 8 x 2
dummy2 dummy
<date> <dbl>
1 2020-01-01 4
2 2020-02-01 6
3 2020-03-01 10
4 2020-07-01 7
5 2020-08-01 6
6 2020-09-01 3
7 2020-10-01 2
8 2020-11-01 0
Now I am having problem as to how to deal with missing months e.g. April 2020 to June 2020 etc.
