Equitable
New York Life - - 19.35
Out of its Largest Surplus, the ICquitable pays a larger amount
of dividends to its policy holders:
Dividend* Paid to Poliey
holders in 1900
Equitable ... $3,481,640 65
New York Life - - 2.828,153 7'
Moreover, the Equitaiile's dividends to Policy holders were
greater than those of the New York Life not only in the actual
amount as shown above, but also iu proportion to the premium
receipts:
Percentage of Dividend. Paid to Poliey-
. holder* in 1900 to Premium Keeeipt.
Equitable - - - 8-27 Per Cent
New York Life - - 5.98 " "
Notwilhstauding the fact that the Kquitable paid larger di-
vidends to its policyholders, it also increased its surplus by a
larger amount than the New York Life:
Increase in Hurplu. in 1900
Equitable - - - $5,684,791 04
New York Life - - 4,033.639 93
Along with this more rapidly increasing fund held for the pay
ment of future dividends to its policyholders, the Kquitable also
shows larger earnings for the same purpose, not only iu abso
lote amount:
Surplus Karned in 1900
Equitable - - - $9,166,431 69
New York Life 6.861,79364
but also in proportion to the premiums received on the assurance
i ercentajre of surplus earned in 1900
to Premium Receipts.
Fquitable - - - 21-76 Per Cent
New York Life - - |4.^,
In view of the foregoing facts, there can scarcely 1* two ouin-
10ns as to which company will probably pay the larger divi-
dends in the future. 6
