Section 1: Xactimate Fundamentals & Price List Management (Questions 1-15)
Q1. An adjuster logs into Xactimate X1 to create a new residential wind claim
estimate. To ensure the estimate pulls current localized pricing for roofing and
exterior materials in a coastal Florida county affected by a recent hurricane, which
function must be verified before sketching or line item entry?
A. The project template is saved from a previous flood claim and reused for efficiency
B. The price list is set to the current quarter/year version for the specific geographic
region
C. The macro library is imported from an archived 2023 project to maintain
consistency
D. The sketch is started in Xactimate Online rather than Xactimate Desktop to auto-
sync pricing
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: Xactimate price lists are updated quarterly and vary by geographic region;
using current pricing ensures accurate RCV calculations. Archived price lists or
templates from prior claims may contain outdated material costs, and the platform
choice does not affect regional pricing accuracy.
Q2. A field adjuster needs to quickly calculate the total square footage of a complex
living room with multiple offsets using Xactimate X1 sketch tools. Which keyboard
shortcut opens the integrated calculator without leaving the sketch workspace?
,2
A. F8
B. F9
C. F10
D. F11
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The F9 key activates the Xactimate calculator for quick mathematical
computations within the sketch or estimate window. F10 is used for quick entry, F11
duplicates a line item, and F12 renames a line item—none provide calculator
functionality.
Q3. During a hail damage inspection, an adjuster identifies saturated attic insulation
requiring removal and replacement. In Xactimate line item coding structure, which
prefix indicates the demolition/removal component of an assembly line item?
A. W
B. R
C. D
D. F
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The "D" prefix in Xactimate denotes demolition or removal operations
within an assembly. "W" indicates waste factor calculations, "R" typically indicates
removal in some contexts but "D" is the standard demo prefix, and "F" indicates
freight or delivery charges.
Q4. A new estimator is setting up a project from template in Xactimate X1 for a
standard single-family dwelling. When configuring the sketch, which room label
designation is appropriate for an attached structure with three exterior walls and one
shared wall with the main house, featuring a concrete slab floor and exterior-grade
doors?
,3
A. Interior
B. Garage
C. Porch
D. Deck
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: A porch is defined as an attached structure with exterior exposure on
multiple sides, distinct from fully interior spaces. A garage requires specific vehicle
access features, while a deck is typically elevated and open-air; the concrete slab and
exterior doors align with porch classification in Xactimate templates.
Q5. An adjuster is writing an estimate for wind-damaged vinyl siding. Rather than
entering individual line items for removal, disposal, wall prep, starter strip, J-channel,
and new panel installation, the adjuster uses a single assembly code. Which
statement accurately describes Xactimate assembly functionality?
A. Assemblies automatically adjust waste factors based on adjuster preference rather
than built-in algorithms
B. Assemblies bundle related operations and materials but require manual entry of
each sub-component for carrier compliance
C. Assemblies combine multiple related line items (demo, materials, labor) under one
code for efficiency while maintaining component detail
D. Assemblies are only available in Xactimate 28 and were removed in X1 for
simplicity
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: Xactimate assemblies group related operations such as demolition,
material installation, and finishing under a single code while preserving individual
component detail for review. They do not rely on manual adjuster preference for
waste, are not mandatory to break apart, and remain fully functional in X1.
Q6. A claim in rural Montana requires material pricing adjustment due to remote
location delivery charges and limited supplier availability. Which Xactimate tool
, 4
allows the estimator to apply a percentage-based multiplier to standard pricing for
this geographic disparity?
A. Price Adjustment Factor (PAF)
B. Macro Override Index
C. Regional Surcharge Slider
D. Depreciation Modifier
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The Price Adjustment Factor (PAF) applies percentage-based multipliers
to standard Xactimate pricing to account for regional cost variations. Macros
automate estimate building, depreciation modifiers reduce value for age/condition,
and there is no "Regional Surcharge Slider" in standard Xactimate.
Q7. An estimator needs to duplicate a line item for "Remove and replace 12 linear
feet of gutter" six times for different roof sections of the same property. Which
keyboard shortcut performs this duplication instantly?
A. F9
B. F10
C. F11
D. F12
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: F11 duplicates the selected line item in Xactimate, allowing rapid
replication across multiple estimate sections. F9 opens the calculator, F10 enables
quick entry mode, and F12 renames the selected line item description.
Q8. When reviewing a price list version in Xactimate X1, an adjuster notices the
current date shows Q2-2026 but the carrier requires Q1-2026 pricing for consistency
with the date of loss. Where can the adjuster access archived price lists for prior
quarters?
