A 35-year old person takes a policy for ₹ 1,00,000 for a period of 20 years. The rate of premium is ₹ 76 and the average rate of bonus is ₹ 7 per thousand p.a. If he dies after paying 10 annual premiums, what amount will his nominee receive?
The future amount, A = ₹ 10,00,000
Period, n = 20, r = 5%, (1.025)20 = 1.675
A = `"C"/"I" [(1 + "i")^"n" - 1]`
I = `5/200` = `square` as interest is calculated semi-annually
A = 10,00,000 = `"C"/"I" [(1 + "i")^"n" - 1]`
10,00,000 = `"C"/0.025 [(1 + 0.025)^square - 1]`
= `"C"/0.025 [1.675 - 1]`
10,00,000 = `("C" xx 0.675)/0.025`
C = ₹ `square`
For an annuity due, C = ₹ 2000, rate = 16% p.a. compounded quarterly for 1 year
∴ Rate of interest per quarter = `square/4` = 4
⇒ r = 4%
⇒ i = `square/100 = 4/100` = 0.04
n = Number of quarters
= 4 × 1
= `square`
⇒ P' = `(C(1 + i))/i [1 - (1 + i)^-n]`
⇒ P' = `(square(1 + square))/0.04 [1 - (square + 0.04)^-square]`
= `(2000(square))/square [1 - (square)^-4]`
= 50,000`(square)`[1 – 0.8548]
= ₹ 7,550.40
