As the premium payments extend over only five years, the expense
contributions must all be paid during that time and are most
conveniently made by a uniform addition to the net premium.
The present value of the amounts in column 3 is $60.0819, and the
equivalent annuity for five years is $12.9769. This amount, received
for five consecutive years, will put the company in funds to pay
current expenses and leave a reserve of $42.6981 at the beginning of
the sixth year, which, as we have seen in the analysis of the
single-premium policy, is the sum required for future expenses on the
paid up basis.
In like manner we find that the 10-year annuity equivalent to the
present value of the annual contributions in the case of an
annual-payment policy is $5.534, thus:

The present value of the ten yearly expense items given in the "total"
column above is $46.6812, which is equal to a ten-year annuity of
$5.534. The several premiums stand now as follows:
ENDOWMENT: $1,000, AGE 30, PAYABLE AT DEATH OR 40
Net Prem.[2] Margin. Total.
At single premium. $687.228 $71.6394 $758.8674
At five premiums. 150.615 12.9769 163.5939
At annual premiums. 84.172 5.5340 89.7060
[Footnote 2: Thirty American offices. Discount from middle of year,
Vx-½ or (M x 1.01961) / Dx.]
By the actuaries' rate we have, with the customary loading for
expense:
Single premium: $721.66 (loaded, $34.36). Five premiums, $188.70
(loaded $37.78). Annual premium, $105.65 (loaded $21.11).
