Question:
Let's assume that we have a portfolio of 100 whole life insurance policies. You are also given the following information:
- each of the 100 lives, all currently age x, are independent
- each of the 100 lives are subject to a constant force of mortality, u = 0.02
- for each policy, a death benefit of 50 is payable at the moment of death
- the death benefit payments are withdrawn from an investment fund that earns 8 = 0.04 . .
Calculate the minimum amount needed in the fund, at time t = 0, such that there is a 95% chance that sufficient funds will be on hand to withdraw the benefit payment upon the death of each individual.
