Method
Future Salary Growth = 5%
Benefits = 15/30*10,000*10 = 50,000
Actuarial Value = 50,000*(1.05/1.07)^(60-40)
= 34,283Actuarial Value differs due to uncertainty of early withdrawal and mortality
Future Salary growth = 4%
Benefits = 15/30*10,000*10 = 50,000
Actuarial Value = 50,000*(1.04/1.07)^(60-40)
= 28,311Actuarial Value differs due to uncertainty of early withdrawal and mortality
Future Salary growth = 9%
Benefits = 15/30*10,000*10 = 50,000
Actuarial Value = 50,000*(1.09/1.07)^(60-40)
= 72,414
