The term of the annuity certain is increased to 30 years, along with an appropriate adjustment to the claims paid for the premium of $500,000 to ensure the Actual Reserves at Year 30 are zero. Calculate the Actual Reserves at Year 27 (to the nearest whole dollar), assuming the interest rate remains at 5% per annum.
ANSWER:
| Annuity payment= | P/ [ [1- (1+r)-n ]/r ] | |
| P= | Investment | 500,000.00 | 
| Rate of interest per period | |
| Rate of interest per annum | 5.0% | 
| Payments per year | 1.00 | 
| Rate of interest per period | 5.000% | 
| n= | number of payments: | |
| Number of years | 30 | |
| Payments per year | 1.00 | |
| number of payments | 30 | 
| Annuity payment= | 500000/ [ (1- (1+0.05)^-30)/0.05 ] | 
| Annuity payment= | 32,525.72 | 
At year 27, only 3 years of payments remain.
| a | Present value of annuity= | P* [ [1- (1+r)-n ]/r ] | 
| P= | Periodic payment | 32,525.72 | 
| r= | Rate of interest per period | |
| Annual interest | 5.00% | |
| Number of payments per year | 1 | |
| Interest rate per period | 0.05/1= | |
| Interest rate per period | 5.000% | |
| n= | number of periods: | |
| Number of years | 3 | |
| Periods per year | 1 | |
| number of payments | 3 | 
| Present value of annuity= | 32525.7175401383* [ (1- (1+0.05)^-3)/0.05 ] | 
| Present value of annuity= | 88,575.60 | 
Value of reserves at year 27 is 88,575.60
