2 3.3 Annuities : A life annuity is a contract that provides for a regular, periodic income for the life of the annuitant.

Annuities may be classified according to six elements: (1)the number of lives covered, (2)how premiums are paid, (3)when benefits begin, (4)whether the annuity involves life contingencies, (5)how long (if at all) payments continue after the death of a life annuitant, and (6)how the benefit payments are measured.

4 1- Number of lives covered: Usually the annuitant is one individual, but not always. For example, the joint - and survivor annuity is available to cover two or more annuitants. Under this contract, payments continue throughout the joint lifetime of two or more annuitants and until the death of the last survivor.

Life insurance cash values and death proceeds frequently are converted to single premium annuities through the use of settlement options.

5. Given the following items from a certain table of mortality, deduce the corresponding values for d x, q x, p x. 3- When benefits begin: Annuities may be classified either as immediate or deferred. Under an immediate annuity periodic payments to the annuitant begin immediately with the period following its purchase. Ordinarily, the payments begin at the end of the first income period.

4- Annuities and life contingencies: An annuity of the former type is called a life annuity. An annuity of the latter type is called an "annuity certain".

5- Payments after the death of a life annuity: Life annuities may be classified as straight life annuities or guaranteed minimum annuities. Under the straight life annuity, a periodic income is paid to the annuitant as long as he or she lives. Upon death, no further payments are trade. The guarantee may be in the form of either a full refund of the invested principal (called a refund annuity) or a guaranteed minimum number of payments (called a life income period-certain annuity).

6. How benefit payments are measured. Until 1995, all annuities were expressed in terms of fixed dollars. Under the fixed dollar annuity, the annuitant is guaranteed a specified minimum number of dollars at each payment period regardless of the purchasing power of these dollars. If the annuity is written on a participating basis, the amount of each payment might be higher than the guaranteed minimum amount..

3.3.1 Variable annuity: In the variable annuity, the dollar amount of the periodic payments is based on the asset value of the investment portfolio behind this class of annuities. Variable annuities pay a monthly amount which will fluctuate according to investment results. The theory behind the variable annuity is giving the annuitant a fairly stable amount of purchasing power. Reasons for a variable annuity, two basic objectives of the variable annuity are to give the annuitant some protection against inflation and an opportunity to share in the economic growth of the country as reflected in increased stock - prices.
