company paid Alfred = $125,000
Alfred died after 18 months, then,
Company collected the face amount of the policy = $150,000
Sale of policy = [ company compensation - premium paid]
= $125,000 - $18,300
= $106,700
In this situation, Alfred receives the submission price from the insurance company consequential in profit.
There is no gain in the income of the insurance policy that is purchased by the Alfred for the long term.
