Life Insurance Policies

How does the premium for a joint life policy compare with two separate policies on the same lives?

Answer and explanation
Answer: A. The insurer expects to pay one face amount rather than two, so the joint contract costs less than two individual policies. Both lives are underwritten, and combining them does not remove that step.Source: PSI — New York DFS Insurance Candidate Information Bulletin — Outline, joint life pricing
