However, Ā x = Ā1 x:n + ne x Ā x+n µ δ + µ =.4275 + µ ne x δ + µ.45 =.4275 + n E x.45 n E x =.5. So, Ā x:n =.4275 +.5 =.4775. 3. Ā x = Ā1 x:1 + v1 1p x Āx+1. We have v 1 1p x = e.4 e.6 = e 1 =.3678794412, 1 Ā 1 x:1 = v t tp x µ x+t dt = 1 e.4t e.6t (.6) dt =.3792723353 Ā x+1 = µ δ + µ =.7.5 +.7 =.5833333333 Therefore, Ā x =.3792723353 + (.3678794412) (.5833333333) =.593868676 The EPV of 1 is 1Āx = 593.87. 4. Under CFM, e x = 1/µ µ = 1/16. i = 5% δ = ln(1.5). 2 Āx = 2 v t tp x µ x+t dt = 2 e δt e µt µ dt = = µ δ + µ e 2(δ+µ) =.6641394 6. Let E be the single net premium. The present value of the benefit is then Z = v Tx (1 + Ee.8Tx ) = v Tx + Ee.8Tx v Tx where v = e.16 E = E(Z) = E(v Tx ) + EE(e.8Tx v Tx ) =.4 + E.4.16+.4.8+.4 E = 4 + 4 E E = 3/1. 2 12 Note that E(e.8Tx v Tx ) = E(e.8Tx e.16tx ) = E(e.8Tx ) is the EPV of a continuous.4 whole life insurance of 1 with µ =.4 and δ =.8, which is equal to..8+.4
8. First, recall that for DML, t p x µ x+t = 1 ω x. So, tp 4 µ 4+t = 1 E(Z) = 6 v t tp 4 µ 4+t dt = E(Z 2 ) = 6 6 e.6t 1 6 dt = 1 6 v 2t tp 4 µ 4+t dt = V(Z) =.138785.27188 2 =.6578. 6 6. 1.6 (1 e.6 6 ) =.27188 e.12t 1 dt =.138785 6 9. First v = 1 d = 1.582355 =.9417645 δ = ln v =.6 E(Z) = ( ĪĀ) = tv t x tp x µ x+t dt = te δt e µt µ dt =.4 Use integration by parts to finish. 1. First, 2 Ā x = µ.25 = µ µ =.4. 2δ+µ.12+µ (ĪĀ ) = tv t x tp x µ x+t dt = (Same as the previous problem.) te.6t e.4t.4 dt =, 4 te.1t dt te.1t dt 11. The is a 1-year term insurance with a variable warranty (i.e. benefit) payment of b t = 6(1.1t) at time t. The APV is E(Z) = 1 b t v t tp µ +t dt = 1 13. First note that tp x = e t µ x+s ds = e.5t2 6(1.1t)e.8t e.2t.2 dt The present value is Z = v Tx = e.4tx. Let z = e.4t be the 8th percentile. Using a graph of z = e.4t, we have.8 = P (Z z ) = P (T x t ) = t p x = e.5t2. Solving the above equation for t, we get t = 6.6847. So, the 8th percentile is z = e.4t =.7655. 14. Consider one bulb first. The possible replacement scenarios (outcomes) are listed in the following chart, where each is the duration of a year and a dot means that a replacement occurs at that time. Scenario PV of the Cost Probability p p 1 p 2 =.315 v 3 p p 1 q 2 =.315 v 2 p q 1 p =.243 v q p p 1 =.63 v 2 + v 3 p q 1 q =.27 v + v 2 q q p =.9 v + v 3 q p q 1 =.27 v + v 2 + v 3 q q q =.1
The average (mean) cost for one bulb is the sum of the products of the present value and its probability. Therefore, for 1 bulbs the value is 1 [.315v 3 +.243v 2 + +.27(v + v 3 ) +.1(v + v 2 + v 3 ) ] = = 1v + 28v 2 + 37v 3 = 6688.26267 Another solution is to use a chart to keep track of the replacements according to the given mortality rates (probabilities). p 2 315 63 p 1 q 2 3 315 9 p q 1 p 243 27 q 3 27 1 p 1 q 9 63 p q 1 3 27 1 p q 1 9 q 3 1 1 2 3 The numbers in red are the numbers of bulbs replaced at that times. The present value is then 1v + (27 + 1)v 2 + (315 + 27 + 27 + 1)v 3 = 6688.26267 15. First, A 1 3:3 = vq 3 + v 2 1 q 3 + v 3 2 q 3, and 3 E 3 = v 3 3p 3. Then A 3:3 = A 1 3:3 + 3E 3. The answer is 1A 3:3. 17. First note that k q x = k p x q x+k = 1 life time. Also note that v = e.5. = 1 ω x 75 ω x = 75, the maximal remaining 74 E(Z) = v k+1 k q x = 1 75 (v + v2 + + v 75 ) =.25394 k=
74 E(Z 2 ) = v 2(k+1) k q x = 1 75 (v2 + v 4 + + v 15 ) =.12678 k= V(Z) =.12678.25394 2 =.6222. 19. Use A 4 = A 1 + 4:2 v2 2p 4 A 6 = (A 4:2 v 2 2p 4 ) + v 2 2p 4 A 6 21. First, A 1 = vq 5:1 5 q 5 = A 1 (1 + i) p 5:1 5 = 1 q 5. Then use (IA) 5 = A 5 + vp 5 (IA) 51 = (A 1 + vp 5:1 5A 51 ) + vp 5 (IA) 51 22. Ā 1 = i x:2 δ A1 where x:2 A1 = vq x:2 x + v 2 1 q x = vq x + v 2 p x q x+1. 23. A (4) x = i(2) A (2) i (4) x i(2) = 1.248 2( 1+i 1) i (4) 4( 4 = 1.248 4 1+i+1 = 1.248 i 1+i 1 2
