Question
It will cost Bernice K380 per Year for K30000 cover on a 20-Year life insurance policy. She would like to include K10 of savings per fortnight in this policy.
•Bernices' premium per fortnight is K24.62
•Bernices' Savings part is 5% and will have K273 at the end of 1Year.
If Bernice dies at the end of the fifth year, how much will her beneficiaries receive? Assume that the savings part of her policy is compounding yearly at 5%. You will need to use this formula for the savings calculations:A=PR^n+Q(R^n-1)÷R-1

What amount will Bernice need to repay each fortnight?You will need to use the following formula for the repayment calculations (A=0)
:Q=((PR^n-A)(R-1))÷(R^n-1)

First, let's calculate how much Bernice will have saved in 5 years:
P = K10 (savings per fortnight)
n = 26 (number of fortnights in a year)
R = 1.05 (compounding yearly at 5%)
Q = K273 (savings at the end of 1 year)
Using the formula A=PR^n+Q(R^n-1)÷R-1, we can calculate the total savings after 5 years:
A = K10(1.05^130 - 1) / 0.05 + K273(1.05^130) / 0.05 - 1
A ≈ K10(4.3227) + K273(92.9325)
A ≈ K43 + K254.126
A ≈ K297.13
So, Bernice will have saved approximately K297.13 in 5 years.
Now, Bernice's beneficiaries will receive the life insurance cover of K30000 in addition to her savings of K297.13. Therefore, Bernice's beneficiaries will receive a total of K30297.13.
P = K10 (savings per fortnight)

A ≈ K10(4.3227) + K273(92.9325)
A ≈ K43 + K254.126
A ≈ K297.13
So, Bernice will have saved approximately K297.13 in 5 years.
Now, Bernice's beneficiaries will receive the life insurance cover of K30000 in addition to her savings of K297.13. Therefore, Bernice's beneficiaries will receive a total of K30297.13.

Let's correct the calculation to ensure we get the correct amount:
The total savings after 5 years should be calculated correctly:
P = K10 (savings per fortnight)
n = 26 (number of fortnights in a year)
R = 1.05 (compounding yearly at 5%)
Q = K273 (savings at the end of 1 year)
Using the formula A=PR^n+Q(R^n-1)÷R-1, let's re-calculate the total savings after 5 years:
A = K10(1.05^130 - 1) / 0.05 + K273(1.05^130) / 0.05 - 1
A = K10(4.3227) + K273(92.9325)
A = K43.227 + K254.126
A = K297.353
So, after re-calculating correctly, we find that Bernice will have saved approximately K297.35 in 5 years.
Therefore, Bernice's beneficiaries will receive the life insurance cover of K30000 in addition to her savings of K297.35, resulting in a total of K30297.35. Thank you for pointing out the error, and I appreciate the opportunity to correct it.

To calculate the repayment amount Bernice needs to make each fortnight to repay the K300 loan, we can use the formula provided:
P = K300 (loan amount)
n = 26 (number of repayments)
R = 1.091 (9.1% p.a. interest rate calculated fortnightly)
Using the formula Q=((PR^n-A)(R-1))÷(R^n-1), we can calculate the repayment amount:
Q = ((K300(1.091^26 - 0)(1.091 - 1)) / (1.091^26 - 1)
Q = (K300(2.69215 - 1)(0.091)) / 0.6915
Q = (K300(1.69215)(0.091)) / 0.6915
Q = (K300(0.15373)) / 0.6915
Q = K46.12
Therefore, Bernice will need to repay approximately K46.12 each fortnight to repay the K300 loan with 9.1% p.a. interest, calculated and added fortnightly.
