LIFE INSURANCE POLICIES EXAM
WITH CORRECT ANSWERS
Whole Life Insurance - CORRECT ANSWERS-Provides lifetime protection, and
includes a savings element (or cash value). Whole life polices endow at age
100, meaning the cash value created by the accumulation of premium is
scheduled to equal the face amount of the policy at age 100.
Key Characteristics of Whole Life Insurance - CORRECT ANSWERS--Level
premium: the premium for whole life policies is based on issue age, therefore
remains the same throughout the life of the policy
-Death benefit: the death benefit is guaranteed and also remains level for life
-Cash value: the cash value, created by the accumulation of premium, is
scheduled to equal the face amount of the policy when the insured reaches
100
-Living benefits: the policyowner can borrow against the cash value while the
policy is in effect, or can receive the cash value when the policy is
surrendered

for coverage will be completely paid-up well before age 100

death benefit to ago 100 for a one-time, lump-sum payment.
Modified Life - CORRECT ANSWERS-A type of whole life policy that charges a

the remainder of the insureds life
