Sample questions & answers

1. In commercial property insurance, business personal property (BPP) coverage applies to:

Contents the insured business owns and uses, such as inventory and equipment

BPP covers the business's contents, including furniture, equipment, and inventory, used in its operations.

2. The special causes of loss form provides the broadest commercial property coverage because it insures on a(n):

Open-peril (all-risk) basis, covering risks not specifically excluded

The special form covers risks of direct physical loss except those specifically excluded, providing the broadest protection.

3. A commercial building worth $500,000 is insured for $300,000 under an 80% coinsurance clause. For a $40,000 covered loss, the insurer pays (before deductible):

$30,000

Coinsurance recovery = (carried / required) x loss = ($300,000 / $400,000) x $40,000 = $30,000.

4. Business income (interruption) coverage is designed to pay for:

Lost net income and continuing expenses while operations are suspended by a covered loss

Business income coverage replaces lost net income and pays continuing normal operating expenses during a covered suspension of operations.
