Description: Variable life insurance asset shares involve, in general, both the separate account and the general account. This paper develops, for both accounts, under the New York Life design, the annual asset share equations of equilibrium for the separate account asset share, for the general account asset share, for the basic reserve, and for the surplus and also derives the individual expressions for the interest and mortality contributions to the surplus. Followed by discussion papers submitted by several authors.
