The Actuarial Conditions for the Valuation of Pension Liability to Become Zero Under Minimum Funding Standard Architecture

Abstract Pension  valuation  exercises  for  a  defined  benefit  scheme  requires  an  appraisal  of  both  the  schemes  assets  and  its  liabilities  in  different  circumstances.  The  valuations  are  required  to  comply  with  regulatory standards, most notably the minimum funding standard. The objectives of this study are: (i) to compute  the  estimate  of  minimum  funding  standard  of  pension  liability  (ii)  to  establish  the  actuari...

A Mathematical Technique of Computing Technical Provisions and Premiums in General Business Insurance Under the Influence of Chain-Ladder and Cape Cod Framework

ABSTRACT An insurance company promises its policyholders to pay out benefits if certain events occur, for example, events such as a car accident and health conditions. When this is happens, the insurance company has a liability to pay the claims by technical provisions or claim reserving. The calculation of claim reserving must be done carefully in such a way that it should not cause loss to the company. Two of the common methods to calculate technical provisions in non-life insurance are the...

Impact of Information Communication Technology (ICT) on Staff Training and Development

ABSTRACT ICT (Information and Communication Technology) has greatly changed contemporary education. The ICT solutions offered enrich learning environments and provide staffs with numerous opportunities. However, even though ICT can enhance education quality, there are many staffs that are unwilling to adjust to the changes brought about by ICT. One of the most crucial inhibitory factors that make staffs reluctant to utilize ICT in education is the lack of their training on ICT. Thus, the purp...

Production and Evaluation of the Impact Strength of Snail Shell Reinforced Epoxy Composite

Particulate-filled polymer composites are becoming quite attractive because of their low cost and wide application. Nowadays shells of arthropods and mollusks are widely used as reinforced materials due to their availability and impact mechanical properties. This study focused on theproduction and evaluation of impact strength of snail shell reinforced epoxy composite and as well given concrete information and recommendation on usage with respect to appropriate filler concentration an...

Comparative Determination of the Extracting Efficacies of Hexane and Ethanol on Phytochemical Parameters of Momordica Charantia Leaves and Stems

Green leaves and stems have a quite high quantity of water and it’s difficult to obtained an accurate solvent to extract the constituents from the aqueous cells. So the choices of solvent to be used may determine the success of the extraction. In this research work two different solvents were used to extract photochemical parameters in Momordica charantia leaves and stems. The phyto constituents extracted by the solvents from the leaves and stems of M.charantia was compared. In a nutshe...

Ambient Air Quality and Noise Assessment in Eleme Communities, Rivers State, Nigeria

Problems caused by ambient air pollution on human and the environment can be averted by steadily and strictly monitoring of the concentrations of outdoor pollutants. Human activities have triggered changes in the earths atmosphere. In this research, 7(Seven) selected Eleme communities, 4(four) zones in each community and 28(Twenty eight) sampling points in all locations were assessed for the concentrations of CO, SO2 , NO2 , NO, CO2 , SPM, O2 , noise level and as well Meteorological param...

Generation of Kifilideen’s Generalized Matrix Progression Sequence of Infinite Term

Considering a cluster of different hierarchical order with various barrier or cadre levels and steps within levels, there is no availability of a structural framework to help exclusively analyze, formulate, identify, differentiate, and design standardized provisional values to cluster members at various barrier levels and steps within levels. This study designs stepwise analysis, generation, and applications of Kifilideen’s Matrix Structural Framework for an infinite term of increasing...

Determination of Styrene Acrylic Resin Composition using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy

ABSTRACT: Styrene acrylate resin is a versatile material with a wide range of applications. It is used in a variety of products, including paints, coatings, adhesives, and sealants. The determination of styrene acrylate resin in these products is important for quality control and regulatory compliance. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) is a powerful technique that can be used to determine the concentration of styrene acrylate resin in a variety of matrices. In this study, a...

Design and Construction of a Computer Power Bank

ABSTRACT This project is a power bank for laptops, and it is designed to serve as a back up to a laptop whenever there is no power supply and it has a variable knob which controls the output voltage to a desired value. The problem is that we carry different chargers for different gadgets. Though the cost of producing is more costly than the normal chargers we have around but it can serve as a reliable backup considering the problem and solution above a power bank for laptop charger is neede...
