  • 2. 

    An insured pays $1,200 annually for her life insurance premium. The insured applies this year’s $300 worth of accumulated dividends to the next year’s premium, thus reducing it to $900. What option does this describe?

    • Cash option

    • Flexible Premium.

    • Accumulation at Interest

    • Reduction of Premium

    Correct Answer
    A. Reduction of Premium
    Explanation
    This scenario describes the option of "Reduction of Premium." The insured applies the accumulated dividends of $300 to the next year's premium, reducing it from $1,200 to $900. This option allows the insured to use their dividends to lower their premium payments for the following year.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

     Which of the following is guaranteed to the policy owner through Non-Forfeiture values?  

    • A beneficiary has the right to choose a settlement option

    • Dividends on the policy are paid yearly.

    • The cash value in a policy belongs to the insured even if the policy lapses or is surrendered

    • The premiums on their policy will never increase

    Correct Answer
    A. The cash value in a policy belongs to the insured even if the policy lapses or is surrendered
    Explanation
    The cash value in a policy belongs to the insured even if the policy lapses or is surrendered. This means that even if the policy is terminated or surrendered by the policy owner, they will still have access to the accumulated cash value within the policy. This provides a guarantee to the policy owner that they will not lose the value they have built up in the policy, regardless of its status.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Which of the following statements is true about a policy assignment?  

    • It is valid during the insured’s lifetime only, because the death benefit is payable to the named beneficiary.

    • It transfers the owner’s rights under the policy to the extent expressed in the assignment form

    • It is the same as a beneficiary designation

    • It permits the beneficiary to designate the person or persons to receive the benefits

    Correct Answer
    A. It transfers the owner’s rights under the policy to the extent expressed in the assignment form
    Explanation
    A policy assignment is a legal transfer of the owner's rights to someone else, as specified in the assignment form. This means that the new assignee has the rights and responsibilities of the policy owner to the extent expressed in the assignment form. It is different from a beneficiary designation, where the beneficiary is only entitled to receive the benefits of the policy upon the insured's death. The assignment remains valid during the insured's lifetime, as the death benefit is payable to the named beneficiary.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

     If a policy holder neglects to select a Non-Forfeiture Option, which one is automatically selected by the insurance company?

    • Reduced paid-up

    • Cash.

    • Extended term

    • Interest

    Correct Answer
    A. Extended term
    Explanation
    If a policy holder neglects to select a Non-Forfeiture Option, the insurance company automatically selects the Extended term option. This means that the policy will continue for a specified period of time without the need for any further premium payments. The death benefit will also remain the same during this extended term. This option allows the policy holder to maintain coverage without having to pay additional premiums, but it does not accumulate any cash value like the other options.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    Which settlement option provides the largest monthly income payments?  

    • Life income with Period Certain.

    • Fixed Amount

    • Life Income

    • Joint Survivor

    Correct Answer
    A. Fixed Amount
    Explanation
    The fixed amount settlement option provides the largest monthly income payments. This option guarantees a fixed amount of money to be paid out each month, regardless of how long the recipient lives. This is different from the other options, such as life income, which may provide larger payments initially but can decrease or stop altogether if the recipient lives longer than expected. The fixed amount option is a more stable and predictable choice for receiving a consistent monthly income.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The Waiver of Cost rider is found in what type of insurance?  

    • Whole Life

    • Joint and Survivor.

    • Juvenile Life

    • Universal Life

    Correct Answer
    A. Universal Life
    Explanation
    The Waiver of Cost rider is found in Universal Life insurance. This rider allows the policyholder to waive the premium payments if they become disabled and unable to work. It ensures that the policy remains in force and the benefits are still available even if the policyholder cannot afford to pay the premiums due to their disability.
