Sample questions & answers
1. Level term life insurance is generally characterized by:
A level death benefit for a set period, with little or no cash value
Level term provides a level death benefit for a stated period and builds little or no cash value.
2. A distinguishing feature of traditional whole life insurance compared with term is that whole life:
Builds a guaranteed cash value and covers the whole of life
Whole life provides lifetime coverage and accumulates a guaranteed cash value, unlike term insurance.
3. Universal life insurance is best known for offering the policyowner:
Flexible premiums and an adjustable death benefit
Universal life offers flexible premiums and an adjustable death benefit within policy limits.
4. In a variable life insurance policy, the cash value and death benefit may fluctuate because premiums are:
Invested in subaccounts chosen by the owner
Variable life places cash value in separate-account investment options, so values vary with investment performance.
