,Page 2 of 172
D) The insured must have a terminal illness.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Insurable interest means the policyowner would
experience financial or emotional loss if the insured dies. It must
exist at the time of application, not necessarily at claim time.
2. A life insurance policy’s "incontestability clause" becomes
effective after:
A) 6 months
B) 1 year
C) 2 years
D) The entire policy period
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: CA law requires a 2-year incontestability period,
after which the insurer cannot void the policy for misstatements
on the application except for nonpayment of premiums.

3. Scenario: Maria, 45, buys a $500,000 term policy and dies
18 months later. The insurer discovers she omitted a lung
cancer diagnosis from the application. Can the insurer deny
the claim?
A) Yes, because it was material misrepresentation.
B) No, because the incontestability clause hasn’t expired.
C) No, because she died within 2 years.
D) Yes, but only if the policy had a suicide clause.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: Within the first 2 years, the insurer can contest for
material misrepresentation. Lung cancer is material. After 2
years, they could not.
4. Which type of life insurance policy offers both death
protection and a cash value component?
A) Term life
, Page 4 of 172
B) Whole life
C) Accidental death
D) Group term
Correct Answer: B

term life is pure protection.

states:
A) The premium amount
B) The insurer’s promise to pay the death benefit
C) The beneficiary’s duties
D) The contestability period
Correct Answer: B

to pay upon the insured’s death.
