  the transfer value paid by the Department in respect of the person in consequence of his ceasing to be in pensionable employment by virtue of his election under regulation B4 together with—

  (i)

  in a case where the transfer value was paid to the Department pursuant to regulation F4 within four weeks of the request under regulation F4(3) an amount, determined actuarially, which represents the income which would have been received had such sum been invested during the period starting at the end of the month in which the transfer value was paid under regulation F1 and ending at the end of the month in which the request under regulation F4(3) was made; and

  (ii)

  in any other case the amount referred to in paragraph (i) together with a further amount, determined actuarially, which represents the income which would have been received compounded with monthly rests, had such sum been invested during the period starting at the end of the month in which the request under regulation F4(3) was made and ending at the end of the month in which the transfer value was paid to the Department; and

  (b)

  the amount which would be paid as a transfer value under regulation F1 in respect of the person if at the date on which he made the election under regulation B5—

  (i)

  he was in pensionable employment and made an election under regulation B4; and

  (ii)

  he had been in pensionable employment for a period equal to the period of original pensionable employment.
