PAID UP VALUE = [No of Premium Paid(Yearly) * Sum Assured/Policy Term] + [Bonus * Sum Assured/1000]

SOLUTION : For Obtaining the Loan Eligibility We need to find out the PAID UP Value and Surrender Value. According to the details we can calculate :

PAID UP VALUE = [20*100000/25]+[1321*100000/1000] * Bonus is taken from the chart Endowment policy of 20 Years

The Value comes around : 2,12,000

Calculate Surrender Value = 65.49*212100/100 = 1,38,904

Therefore LOAN VALUE = 90% * Surrender Value i.e. 138904 =1,25,013

NOTE : for lapsed policy, the loan % allowed is 85%. It is generally seen that The minimum surrender value is 30% of total amount of premiums paid excluding the premiums paid for the first year for any Endowment policy.
