Extended warranty

Q: Is it permissible to purchase an extended warranty at the time of purchasing the item (in such a manner that the fee for the warranty will be regarded to be part of the purchase price of the item)?

Pension fund

Q: In addition to the Provident fund question asked, does the same apply to the Pension fund? How will I know if and how much of interest has been accumulated over the years and how do I calculate? Do I ask the company how and where was my pension fund invested.
