4 INSURANCE COST AND OCCUPATION CLASSIFICATION GUIDE | 1 APRIL 2019

Cost of Insurance

For Standard Cover

You can work out your insurance costs for Standard Cover by obtaining the figures described under sub-paragraphs a to c and applying these figures to sub-paragraphs d and e below as follows

a Sum Insured For the level of Standard Cover applicable to you refer to the relevant PDS for the Fund under the lsquoLevel of cover for Standard Cover optionrsquo table and look up your age next birthday

b Annual insurance rate To get the annual rate (per $1000 Sum Insured) that applies to you refer to the lsquoRates tablesrsquo below and look up the annual rate that applies to your

bull age next birthday

bull gender and

bull smoking status

c Occupational Rating Factor Locate your occupation in the lsquoOccupational Classificationrsquo table and then use the lsquoOccupational Rating Factorsrsquo table to find the value applicable to you

d Annual insurance cost To work out your annual insurance cost multiply the annual insurance rate (refer sub-paragraph lsquobrsquo above) by the applicable Occupational Rating Factor (refer sub-paragraph lsquocrsquo above) and your Sum Insured (refer sub-paragraph lsquoarsquo above) and then divide this figure by 1000

Annual insurance cost =annual insurance rate times occupational rating factor times sum insured

1000

e Monthly insurance cost To work out your monthly insurance cost divide your annual insurance cost (refer sub-paragraph lsquodrsquo above) by 12 This monthly insurance cost will be deducted from your account each month

Monthly insurance cost =annual insurance cost

12

To calculate the cost of insurance under Standard Cover apply the same formula for Tailored Cover above and multiply the result by 12

Your annual insurance cost is recalculated each year on 1 July and will vary by the

bull lesser of the increase of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and five percent and

bull annual insurance rates applicable to your age next birthday at this time

Note Your monthly insurance cost may be pro rata for the number of days active in the first month In addition if you change your insurance cover your annual insurance cost will be recalculated at the date of change
