A 32 year old woman purchases a 100,000 term life insurance policy for an annual payment of $310. Based on a period life table for the U.S. Government, the probability that she will survive the year is 0.999052. Find the expected value of the policy for the insurance company. Round to two decimal places for currency problems.
--------
Random values for the company:: +310........-99690
Corresponding probabilities:::: 0.999052.....0.000948
------
Expected value to company = 310*0.999052 - 99690*0.000948 = $215.20
