Net premium reserve recursion: Terminal year reports a zero reserve · case 03

An undefined terminal reserve is reported as zero.

Member previewVariant 3 · 3 implementations · 7 checks per implementation

Case contract

Input q (per 100000 by policy year), P (annual net premium, cents, paid at start of year), S (death benefit at year end), i (per mille). Starting from 0V=0: (k+1)V = ((kV+P)(1+i) - q S)/p carried exactly; each reserve is reported rounded half away from zero. If p=0 report None and stop.

Why this case matters

Life-table arithmetic compounds across ages, so one misplaced index or assumption shifts every downstream value.

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
