Best Answer

A renewable policy allows the policyowner to renew the coverage simply by paying additional premiums before the termination date without having to provide evidence of insurability (i.e. proving good health)Note: most insurance providers limit the number of times you can renew such a policy or set an age limit for renewals so make sure to pay attention to this when shopping for term life insurance if you plan on renewing your policy for some time.

What is the value of a life insurance policy from Metropolitan life insurance taken out in 1924?

This answer will depend on the type of policy that was taken out and if the policy is still "in force". If the policy is a term policy (unlikely), whatever is the death benefit face amount of the policy. If the policy is whole life or universal life policy, the policy may have a cash surrender value and a death benefit value. Meaning that you may be able to simply cash out the policy and get a check prior to death. Or, upon death, the value would be the death benefit face amount plus any unpaid dividends and interest minus any loans that may have been taken out. I am happy to answer more questions or help you with this. Brian Lombardo, CPA, Agent
