Question

M purchases a $70,000 Life Insurance Policy with premium payments of $550 a year for the first 5 years. At the beginning of the sixth year, the premium will increase to $800 per year but will remain level thereafter. The face amount will remain at $70,000 throughout the life of the policy. The type of policy that M has purchased is?

Answer 1

This is a modified premium life insurance policy. In this case, the premium (the price paid for the insurance during each time period) is fixed for a specific frame (at rates that are usually lower than average), but then (usually) increases after a certain number of months or years to a rate greater than the average.
