The surrender value is the amount paid by an insurance company to the policyholder when a life insurance policy is terminated before maturity. It is calculated by deducting costs and charges from the total premiums paid.
Unearned premium represents insurance premiums that have been paid in advance for coverage that extends beyond the current period. If a policy is canceled, the insurer must refund the unearned amount.
