Mason has suffered a $42,000 loss to his commercial
building due to fire. The building is covered under the
Building & Personal Property coverage form and had
been vacant for 74 days. The insurer would have paid the
entire loss if the building had been occupied, but what will
they pay because the insured building was considered
vacant?
$28,980.
$42,000.
$6,300.
$35,700. - ...ANSWER...✓✓ For a loss that would
otherwise be covered for the full amount, a reduction of
15% is taken off the claims payment because the building
was considered vacant. 15% of $42,000 is $6,300. If $6,300
is subtracted from $42,000, the insured would receive
$35,700.
