,Question 1:
Frank owned a home that was destroyed by a hurricane. Both ABC and XYZ
Banks were listed as additional interests on his homeowner policy. The
insurance company will make a payment to:
A. The first mortgagee, ABC
B. The Insured
C. Jointly to ABC and XYZ
D. All listed interests
Correct Answer: D. All listed interests
Rationale: The insurer is not responsible to know the degrees of interest
among multiple mortgagees. In the event of a loss, the insurer makes one
payment, and it is up to the additional interests to work out their respective
shares among themselves. This protects the insurer from liability and places
the burden of determining priority on the mortgagees.
Question 2:
Insurance applies separately to each insured as if other insureds did not
exist. This is defined as:
A. Severability
B. Conditional
C. Warranty
D. None of the above
Correct Answer: A. Severability
,Rationale: Severability is a policy provision that treats each insured
separately. This means the acts of one insured do not affect coverage for
other insureds. For example, if one insured commits fraud, the policy may
still provide coverage for an innocent co-insured. This is a fundamental
concept in liability insurance that protects innocent insureds from the
actions of others.
Question 3:
Property insurance policies usually contain a(n) ______ clause, stating the
insured cannot dump damaged property on the insurer and demand its full
value:
A. Pro Rata
B. Abandonment
C. Liberalization
D. All of the above
Correct Answer: B. Abandonment
Rationale: The abandonment clause prevents the insured from
abandoning damaged property to the insurer and demanding full policy
limits. If the insured wants to leave damaged property with the insurer, they
must first obtain the insurer's written consent. This protects insurers from
being forced to accept and dispose of damaged property they did not
choose to acquire.
, Question 4:
A(n) ______ is one wherein economic loss would be suffered from an
adverse happening to the subject:
A. Conditional Contract
B. Personal Contract
C. Economic Contract
D. Insurable Interest
Correct Answer: D. Insurable Interest
Rationale: Insurable interest exists when a person would suffer an
economic loss from damage to the insured property. This is a fundamental
requirement for purchasing insurance. The interest must exist at the time of
loss for property insurance. Without insurable interest, an insurance
contract would be a wagering contract and unenforceable.
Question 5:
States that if the insurer adopts a revision which would broaden coverage
without additional premium within some period of time prior to the policy
period or during the policy period, the insured receives the benefit of such
broadened coverage.
A. Cancellation Clause
B. Policy Period
C. Pro Rata
D. Liberalization
Correct Answer: D. Liberalization
