To calculate the difference in total premium costs over 20 years for this policy at the two age levels, we need to calculate the total premium for each age level and then subtract the amount for the 45-year-old male from the amount for the 40-year-old male.
The total premium for a 40-year-old male with a $125,000 policy can be calculated by multiplying the face value by the premium per $1000 of face value: 125,000 * 22.60 / 1000 = $2,825.
Similarly, the total premium for a 45-year-old male with a $125,000 policy can be calculated by multiplying the face value by the premium per $1000 of face value: 125,000 * 27.75 / 1000 = $3,468.75.
The difference in total premium costs over 20 years for this policy at the two age levels can be calculated by subtracting the amount for the 45-year-old male from the amount for the 40-year-old male: 2,825 - 3,468.75 = -$643.75.
The difference in total premium costs over 20 years for this policy at the two age levels is -$643.75, or approximately -$644.
Therefore, the answer is d. -$644.
