Pure life insurance. - Answers term insurance is also known as
Term Insurance - Answers The type of life insurance that provides for the greatest amount of coverage
for the lowest
premium as compared to any other form of protection.
, Term insurance provides what is known as pure death protection: - Answers • If the insured dies during
this term, the policy pays the death benefit to the beneficiary;
• If the policy is canceled or expires prior to the insured's death, nothing is payable at the end of the
term; and
• There is no cash value or other living benefits.
Level, Increasing, & Decreasing - Answers Three basic types of term coverage, based on how the face
amount (death benefit) changes during the policy term:
Term insurance has the following characteristics - Answers Regardless of the type of term insurance
purchased, 1) the premium is level throughout the term of the policy; 2) only the amount of the death
benefit may fluctuate, depending on the type of term insurance. 3) Upon selling, renewing, or
converting the term policy, the premium is figured at attained age (the insured's age at the time
of transaction).
Level term insurance - Answers Term insurance provides a level *death benefit*. The policy remains the
same from the date the policy is issued until the date the policy expires.
Level Premium Term - Answers Term insurance which provides a *level death benefit and a level
premium* during the policy term. For example, a $100,000 10-year level term policy will provide a
$100,000 death benefit if the insured dies any time during the 10-year period.
Annually renewable term (ART): - Answers the purest form of term insurance. The death benefit remains
level, and the policy may be guaranteed to be renewable each year without proof of insurability, but the
premium increases annually according to the attained age, as the probability of death increases.
Decreasing term policies - Answers feature a level premium and a death benefit that decreases each
year over the duration of the policy term.
Decreasing term coverage is commonly purchased to insure: - Answers This type of insurance is
purchased to insure the payment of a mortgage or other debts if the insured dies prematurely. The
amount of coverage thereby decreases as the outstanding loan balance decreases each year. A
decreasing term policy is usually convertible; however, it is usually not renewable since the death
benefit is $0 at the end of the policy term.
Return of premium (ROP) - Answers This type of life insurance is an increasing term insurance policy that
pays an additional death
benefit to the beneficiary equal to the amount of the premiums paid. The return of premium is paid if
the death occurs within a specified period of time or if the insured outlives the policy term.
How are ROP's Structured? - Answers ROP policies are structured to consider the low risk factor of a
term policy but at a significant increase in premium cost, sometimes as much as 25% to 50% more.
