Annuities
What distinguishes an annuity certain from a life contingency option?
Answer and explanation
Answer: A. An annuity certain pays for a fixed period or until a fixed amount is exhausted, without reference to whether the annuitant is alive. Life contingency options depend on survival, which is what brings mortality into the calculation.Source: PSI — New York DFS Insurance Candidate Information Bulletin — Outline, annuities certain
