    Can someone help me with how to calculate the 'cost of increase in reserve column '?
     
  2. The formula that's being used here is:
    {reserve held at start of year} + {interest earned on the reserve} - {reserve held at end of year per survivor} x {probability of surviving to end of year}
    Always add this formula to the cashflows in order to get the in-force profit flows (profit vector).
    Eg, for year 1:
    = 0 + 0 - P x (1 - q60) = - Px (1 - 0.008022) = -Px0.99198
    (noticing that we are told that the reserve for each policy in force is just equal to P at all durations).
    For year 2:
    = P x (1.07) - Px(1-0.009009) = P x 0.0079009
    Etc.
