Sample questions & answers
1. Which type of life insurance provides protection for a specified period and generally builds no cash value?
Term life insurance
Term life insurance provides death benefit protection for a stated period and typically has no cash value, making it the lowest-cost form of coverage initially.
2. A distinguishing feature of whole life insurance is that it:
Provides lifetime coverage and builds guaranteed cash value
Whole life provides permanent protection with level premiums and a guaranteed cash value that grows over time, with coverage intended to last the insured's lifetime.
3. Decreasing term insurance is frequently used to:
Cover a debt such as a mortgage that declines over time
In decreasing term, the death benefit declines over the policy period, which makes it well suited to covering an amortizing obligation like a mortgage.
4. A key flexibility feature of universal life insurance is that the policyowner may:
Adjust the premium and death benefit within limits
Universal life offers flexible premiums and an adjustable death benefit, with policy charges and interest credited to a cash value account.
