First Claim
1. A computer system for processing data relating to a deferred annuity contract during the accumulation phase, the annuity contract having a payment base value, a contract value, and benefit payments available, for a term and in accordance with a guarantee, in each of a plurality of time periods during the term, without reduction of the payment base value, comprising:
- a data storage device storing data relating to the deferred annuity contract, including data indicative of;
the payment base value and the contract value; and
a processor in communication with the data storage device, the processor being configured to;
determine a value of a withdrawal percent applicable to a date during the accumulation phase based on data stored in the data storage device;
access from the data storage device data indicative of at least one of the payment base value and the contract value;
based on the determined value of the withdrawal percent and either the payment base value or the contract value, determine an amount of the benefit payment available during a time period during the accumulation phase without reduction of the payment base value; and
provide an output signal having data indicative of the determined amount of the benefit payment available during the time period without reduction of the payment base value;
wherein a value of the withdrawal percent is greater than zero and automatically increases during the accumulation phase and after a first of the benefit payments.

Abstract
A computer implemented data processing system and method processes data relating to a deferred annuity contract during the accumulation phase for a relevant life. The system is configured to determine an amount of an available benefit payment, available on a periodic basis for withdrawal without reduction of a payment base value, the available benefit payment amount being based on a withdrawal percent value and one of a payment base value and a contract value. The withdrawal percent value increases automatically after a first of the benefit payments.
