Sec. 425.061. COMPUTATION OF CALENDAR YEAR STATUTORY VALUATION INTEREST RATE: GENERAL RULE. (a) For purposes of Subsection (b):
(1) R1 is the lesser of R or.09;
(2) R2 is the greater of R or.09;
(3) R is the reference interest rate determined under Section 425.063 ; and
(4) W is the weighting factor determined under Section 425.062 .
(b) The calendar year statutory valuation interest rate ("I") is determined as provided by this section, with the results rounded to the nearest one-quarter of one percent:
(1) for life insurance:
I =.03 + W(R1 -.03) + (W/2)(R2 -.09); and
(2) for a single premium immediate annuity or annuity benefits involving life contingencies arising from another annuity with a cash settlement option or from a guaranteed interest contract with a cash settlement option, or for an annuity or guaranteed interest contract without a cash settlement option, or for an annuity or guaranteed interest contract with a cash settlement option that is valued on a change in fund basis:
I =.03 + W(R -.03).
(c) For an annuity or guaranteed interest contract with a cash settlement option that is valued on an issue year basis, other than an annuity or contract described by Subsection (b)(2):
(1) the formula prescribed by Subsection (b)(1) applies to an annuity or guaranteed interest contract with a guarantee duration determined under Section 425.062 (f) greater than 10 years; and
(2) the formula prescribed by Subsection (b)(2) applies to an annuity or guaranteed interest contract with a guarantee duration determined under Section 425.062 (f) of 10 years or less.
(d) Notwithstanding Subsections (b) and (c), if the calendar year statutory valuation interest rate for a life insurance policy issued in a calendar year as determined under Subsection (b) or (c), as applicable, would differ from the corresponding actual rate for similar policies issued in the preceding calendar year by less than one-half of one percent, the calendar year statutory valuation interest rate for the policy is the corresponding actual rate for the preceding calendar year. For purposes of this subsection, the calendar year statutory valuation interest rate for a life insurance policy issued in a calendar year is determined for 1980 using the reference interest rate defined for 1979, and is determined for each subsequent calendar year regardless of whether Subchapter B , Chapter 1105 , applies to the policy.
