Julia is currently age 30. She purchases a whole life insurance policy that pays a benefit of $1 at the moment of death. Let i = 0.06 In addition, suppose that Julia's mortality or age- at-failure (X) follows the Uniform Distribution on [0, 100]. Let Z be the present value random variable for the unit of payment made at the time point of failure. Calculate the expected value and variance of the present value of her death benefit.
