Universal life insurance combines elements from term life insurance and whole life insurance. Term policies provide a death benefit savings component, whole life policies provide a death benefit savings component, and universal policies provide a death benefit savings component. To understand how universal premiums are allocated, consider the following example. Larry is a 42-year-old lawyer who has taken out a universal life insurance policy to protect his two children (ages 13 and 16) in the event of death. Each year, Larry chooses how much would like to contribute to the policy, as shown by the first row of the table below. The insurance company subtracts from this an administrative fee along with the cost of the death benefit (the portion of the policy) then puts the remainder into the cash value (or ) portion of the policy. This money earns interest at a rate of return. Based on the given information, calculate the amount that is added to the cash value portion of the policy in each of the first three years. The cost of the death benefit portion of universal policies is only fixed for certain periods and rises with age, as is the case with life insurance policies. Suppose that in the 9th year of his policy, his cost of death benefit has risen substantially. At the same time, he is paying to have major repairs done on his home and currently cannot afford to pay his life insurance premium. True or False: Under the terms of a standard universal policy, if Larry stops paying his premiums, then the administrative fee and cost of death benefit will be deducted from the savings portion of his policy (assuming sufficient cash value accumulation,) and the policy will remain active.
