COMMENTS
A conjecture of Schinzel, if true, would imply that such a p always exists.

FORMULA
a(n) = (A060324(n) + 1) * n - 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Aug 28 2014
EXAMPLE
1 = (2+1)/(2+1), 2 = (5+1)/(2+1), 3 = (11+1)/(3+1), 4 = (11+1)/(2+1), ...
MAPLE
a:= proc(n) local q;
q:= 2;
while not isprime(n*(q+1)-1) do
q:= nextprime(q);
od; n*(q+1)-1
end:
seq(a(n), n=1..300);
MATHEMATICA
a[n_] := (q = 2; While[ ! PrimeQ[n*(q+1)-1], q = NextPrime[q]]; n*(q+1)-1); Table[a[n], {n, 1, 57}] (* Jean-François Alcover, Feb 17 2012, after Maple *)
PROG
(Haskell)
