In calculating insurance premiums, the actuarially fair insurance premium is the premium
that results in a zero NPV for both the insured and the insurer. As such, the present value
of the expected loss is the actuarially fair insurance premium. Suppose your company
wants to insure a building worth $390 million. The probability of loss is 1.29 percent in
one year, and the relevant discount rate is 3.1 percent.
a. What is the actuarially fair insurance premium? (Do not round intermediate
calculations and enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to
the nearest whole number, e.g., 1,234,567.)
b. Suppose that you can make modifications to the building that will reduce the
probability of a loss to .80 percent. How much would you be willing to pay for these
modifications? (Do not round intermediate calculations and enter your answer in
dollars, not millions of dollars, rounded to the nearest whole number, e.g.,
1,234,567.)
a. Insurance premium
b. Maximum cost
A pension fund faces a promised outflow of $5 million in 6 years. Its managers plan to dedicate a portfolio comprised of the following two bonds to meet this obligation.
d. Suppose that it is now 3 years later and that there has been a parallel increase in interest rates of 2%. Explain how immunization at least partially protects this portfolio. That is, what are the sources of losses and gains associated with each of the bonds caused by the increase in interest rates? How do they offset each other?
