Use the finite risk contract. Suppose that a 3-year contract is signed that:
(1) requires the insured firm to pay premiums of $4 million a year
(2) credit interest at 6.0% percent annually on the year’s beginning balance
(3) provides the insurer with a fee equal to 10 percent of each premium
(4) has an aggregate limit of $20 million for the three years.
How much would the policyholder get back at the end of three years if loss payments at year-end were a) $3 million in year 1; $3 million in year 2; and $3 million in year 3?
b) $8 million in year 1; $1 million in year 2; and $1 million in year 3?

I know the answers are: a = $,2598 and b = $1,100 but I am not sure how to get to those answer. Please show work when answering the questions.

We have provided with the information,

Suppose that a 3-year contract is signed that:
(1) requires the insured firm to pay premiums of $4 million a year
(2) credit interest at 6.0% percent annually on the year’s beginning balance
(3) provides the insurer with a fee equal to 10 percent of each premium
(4) has an aggregate limit of $20 million for the three years.

So the calculation for the 3 year is as follow = $ 2598

How much would the policyholder get back at the end of three years if loss payments at year-end were a) $3 million in year 1; $3 million in year 2; and $3 million in year 3?
