Description: This paper is from the Transactions of Society of Actuaries 1956 Volume 8, Number 20. It was presented at the 1956 Spring Meetings of the Society of Actuaries for discussion. The authors present a method for calculating the level annual premium for a life insurance policy paying the face amount plus reserve at death. The authors’ purpose is to obtain a slightly more general result than previously published formulas, using a more direct route.

Description: This is a discussion of the paper, 'Payment of Reserve in Addition to Face Amount' by Paul W. Nowlin and T. N. E. Greville, which discussed a method for determining the level premium for such coverage. This discussion applies risk theory to the insurance discussed in the paper.
