Part I. Rulings and Decisions Under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986

Section 807.—Rules for Certain Reserves

Rev. Rul. 2014–4

For purposes of § 807(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012, this ruling supplements the schedules of prevailing state assumed interest rates set forth in Rev. Rul. 92–19, 1992–1 C.B. 227. This information is to be used by insurance companies in computing their reserves for (1) life insurance and supplementary total and permanent disability benefits, (2) individual annuities and pure endowments, and (3) group annuities and pure endowments. As § 807(d)(2)(B) requires that the interest rate used to compute these reserves be the greater of (1) the applicable federal interest rate, or (2) the prevailing state assumed interest rate, the table of applicable federal interest

rates in Rev. Rul. 92–19 is also supplemented.

Following are supplements to schedules A, B, C, and D to Part III of Rev. Rul. 92–19, providing prevailing state assumed interest rates for insurance products with different features issued in 2013 and 2014, and a supplement to the table in Part IV of Rev. Rul. 92–19, providing the applicable federal interest rates under § 807(d) for 2013 and 2014. This ruling does not supplement Parts I and II of Rev. Rul. 92–19.
