K has a life insurance policy that allows him to skip premium payments but still keeps the policy in force. What type of policy does K have?A: Term LifeB: Straight Whole LifeC: Universal LifeD: All of the Above

Respuesta :

Answer:

Correct answer is C: K has a Universal Life insurance policy.

Explanation:

Term Life insurance lasts for a prefixed amount of years, based on a system of monthly payments. Whole Life insurance, on the other hand, is a permanent life insurance policy because it has no prefixed expiration date. Both kind of insurances last as long as you maintain the payments, so we can cross A and B out of the options (and also D), leaving us with Universal Life. This kind of insurance policy has a twist and provides more flexibility: the premiums and death benefits can be changed without having to sign an entirely new policy. Furthermore, you can use the cash value to pay the premiums (this is perfect for people who do not want to commit to a specific monthly amount). So, even though you have a minimum premium to keep the policy,  they can be payed with the cash value.
