Section 935.40  Individual Annuity or Pure Endowment Contracts

 

a)         Except as provided in subsections (b), (c), (d) and (e), the 1983 Table "a" is recognized and approved as an individual annuity mortality table for valuation and, at the option of the company, may be used for purposes of determining the minimum standard of valuation for any individual annuity or pure endowment contract issued on or after September 8, 1977 and before January 1, 2017.

 

b)         Except as provided in subsections (c), (d) and (e), the 1983 Table "a" or the Annuity 2000 Mortality Table shall be used for determining the minimum standard of valuation for any individual annuity or pure endowment contract issued on or after December 31, 1985 and before January 1, 2017.

 

c)         Except as provided in subsections (d) and (e), the Annuity 2000 Mortality Table shall be used for determining the minimum standard of valuation for any individual annuity or pure endowment contract issued on or after January 1, 1999 and before January 1, 2017.

e)         The 1983 Table "a" without projection is to be used for determining the minimum standards of valuation for an individual annuity or pure endowment contract issued on or after January 1, 1999 and before January 1, 2017, solely when the contract is based on life contingencies and is issued to fund periodic benefits arising from:

 

1)         Settlements of various forms of claims pertaining to court settlements or out of court settlements from tort actions;

Section 935.45  Application of the 2012 IAR Mortality Table

 

a)         In using the 2012 IAR Mortality Table, the mortality rate for a person age x in year (2012 + n) is calculated as follows:

 

 

b)         The resulting  shall be rounded to three decimal places per 1,000, e.g., 0.741 deaths per 1,000. Also, the rounding shall occur according to the formula in subsection (a), starting at the 2012 period table rate.

 

c)         For example, for a male age 30,  = 0.741.

 

= 0.741 * (1 – 0.010) ^ 1 = 0.73359, which is rounded to 0.734.

 

= 0.741 * (1 – 0.010) ^ 2 = 0.7262541, which is rounded to 0.726.

 

d)         A method leading to incorrect rounding would be to calculate  as * (1 – 0.010), or 0.734 * 0.99 = 0.727. It is incorrect to use the already rounded  to calculate .

b)         Except as provided in subsection (c), either the 1983 GAM Table or the 1994 GAR Table shall be used for determining the minimum standard of valuation for any annuity or pure endowment purchased on or after December 31, 1985 and before January 1, 2017 under a group annuity or pure endowment contract.

where the qx1994 and AAx are as specified in the 1994 GAR Table.
