LLQP Exam Dumps : Life License Qualification Program (LLQP)

This question is a direct application of the time value of money concept—specifically present value (PV)—as taught in the LLQP Segregated Funds and Annuities material. Present value “works backwards from a future date” and answers the question: how much is needed now to achieve a future savings goal. The LLQP text provides the formula:

PV = FV ÷ (1 + interest rate)ⁿ

Here, Davy’s future goal is FV = $200,000, the annual return is 3% (0.03), and the time horizon is n = 10 years. Substituting into the LLQP formula:

PV = 200,000 ÷ (1.03)¹⁰

(1.03)¹⁰ ≈ 1.343916, so:

PV ≈ 200,000 ÷ 1.343916 ≈ $148,818.9, which rounds to $148,819.

Therefore, if Davy has at least $148,819 in his RRSP today and earns an average of 3% per year for the next 10 years with no additional contributions, he should reach approximately $200,000 by age 65.

This aligns exactly with the LLQP explanation that PV calculations are used “to help a person determine how much needs to be saved today to yield a specified pension at a future date.”

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:

Rene’s salary is $70,000/year, and his group disability insurance provides 60% of this, or $42,000/year ($70,000 × 0.60), equating to $3,500/month ($42,000 ÷ 12). His monthly expenses are $3,500, so this just covers his needs if disabled. However, the LLQP stresses considering unexpected expenses (e.g., medical costs, inflation) beyond basic living expenses (Chapter 2:Insurance to Protect Income).

RRSP contribution: $1,000/month, savings: $45,000 (registered) + $10,000 (non-registered).

40% of salary = $70,000 × 0.40 = $28,000/year or $2,333/month.

Option A: Incorrect; $3,500/month matches expenses but leaves no buffer for unforeseen costs.

Option B: Incorrect; RRSPs are for retirement, not disability liquidity, and don’t enhanceimmediate protection.

Option C: $1,000/month additional coverage is arbitrary and insufficient for 40% of salary; it doesn’t align with needs analysis.

Option D: Correct; 40% of salary ($2,333/month) on top of $3,500 provides $5,833/month, offering a safety net for unexpected expenses, consistent with LLQP’s holistic protection approach (Chapter 6:Client Profile).

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation:

Key person insurance pays $5,000/month for 12 months max (total $60,000) after a 60-day wait. Replacement expense rider pays $2,500/month during replacement (6 months = $15,000). Total: $5,000 × 10 months (post-wait) = $50,000 + $15,000 = $65,000 (Chapter 5:Insurance to Protect Businesses).

Option A: Incorrect; overestimates.

Option B: Correct; $65,000.

Option C-D: Incorrect; underestimates.
