Life Policy ProvisionsQuestion 416 of 716

The settlement option that pays equal installments for a chosen length of time until the proceeds and interest are used up is the:

a.Life income option
b.Fixed amount option
c.Interest only option
d.Fixed period option

Explanation

The fixed period option spreads the proceeds plus interest into equal payments over a set number of years chosen by the owner or beneficiary; the payment size depends on how long the period is. The life income option pays for the payee's life. The interest only option pays just the interest and preserves principal. The fixed amount option sets the dollar amount per payment and lets the time period vary. Fixed period fixes the time and solves for the payment.
