The policy does not require the loss to happen within the U.S. or for the product to be on the insured's premises for coverage to apply.

The given answer states that "Part of the work is complete and turned over to another contractor" is not considered an example of when work is complete. This means that when a portion of the work is finished and handed over to another contractor, it is not considered as the completion of the entire project. The other options provided in the question, such as work called for in the contract being complete, work done at multiple sites, and part of the work being put to its intended use, all indicate instances when work is considered complete.

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) is a type of insurance coverage that provides benefits to individuals who are injured in an accident. It typically covers medical expenses, work loss, and other related costs. In this case, the benefit that is not included under PIP is "Replacement services paid at 90%". This means that PIP does not provide coverage for the cost of hiring someone to perform household tasks or other services that the injured person is unable to do themselves due to the accident.

A flood policy typically covers the dwelling, detached garage, and contents of a property. However, a detached shed is not typically included in a standard flood policy. Therefore, the correct answer is "Detached shed."

The Building and Personal Property Coverage Form covers various items that are considered part of a building. These include the structure itself, floor coverings, and refrigerating equipment. However, free-standing display cases are not considered building items because they can be easily moved or removed from the premises.

If an employer who is not required to carry Workers' Comp purchases a policy and an employee is injured, the employer is obligated to furnish medical treatment or care. This means that even though the employer is not required to have Workers' Comp, by purchasing a policy, they have taken on the responsibility to provide medical treatment or care for any employee who gets injured. This ensures that the injured employee receives the necessary medical attention and care to recover from their injuries.

Employment-related practices liability insurance provides employers with claims-made coverage for liability arising out of claims for injury to an employee because of an employment-related offense. This type of policy protects employers from potential lawsuits and financial damages resulting from claims such as discrimination, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, or other employment-related offenses. It covers legal defense costs, settlements, and judgments, helping employers to mitigate the financial risks associated with these types of claims.

Punitive damages are a type of damages that are awarded to punish the wrongdoer for their anti-social actions, rather than compensating for any loss. These damages are meant to deter and discourage similar behavior in the future by imposing a financial penalty on the defendant.

Punitive damages go beyond compensating the victim and aim to hold the wrongdoer accountable for their actions.

According to F.S. 626.401, an insurer needs a Certificate of Authority in order to transact insurance in the state of Florida. This document serves as proof that the insurer has met all the necessary requirements and regulations set by the state to conduct insurance business. It grants them the legal permission to operate and provide insurance services within Florida.

An insurance contract is commonly referred to as a policy. This document outlines the terms and conditions of the insurance coverage, including the type of coverage, premium amount, and duration of the policy. It serves as a legally binding agreement between the insurance company and the policyholder, providing financial protection against specified risks in exchange for the payment of premiums.

The given answer, "Six months 'all-lines' experience as a full-time employee," is not a qualification for obtaining a General Lines License. The other options, such as being a Florida resident, not being involved in "controlled business," and successfully completing a 200-hour department-approved course, are all qualifications required to obtain the license. However, having six months of "all-lines" experience as a full-time employee is not listed as a requirement.

Boiler machinery coverage stands out from most insurance policies because it allows the representative to suspend coverage immediately upon discovering a dangerous condition during inspection. This unique feature ensures that the insurance company can mitigate potential risks and prevent further damage or accidents. This provision gives the representative the power to take prompt action and protect both the insured party and the insurance company's interests.

Insurable interest refers to the financial or legal interest that a person has in the subject matter of an insurance policy, such as property or a person's life. It ensures that the person purchasing the insurance has a legitimate reason to protect against potential losses. The statement "Shows a similarity between insurance and wagering" is incorrect because insurable interest is a fundamental principle of insurance that distinguishes it from gambling or wagering. Unlike gambling, where individuals have no legitimate interest in the outcome, insurance requires a genuine financial or legal interest in the insured property or person.

The Florida Financial Responsibility Law is triggered by certain events that require drivers to provide proof of financial responsibility, such as having car insurance. Conviction of DUI, an accident involving bodily injury, and any accident where a vehicle must be removed by a wrecker are all events that would typically trigger this law. However, simply calling the police after an accident does not automatically trigger the law. It is possible to report an accident to the police without it resulting in the need to provide proof of financial responsibility.

Jettison refers to the act of voluntarily throwing overboard parts or cargo from a vessel in order to prevent it from sinking. This action is taken as a last resort to lighten the load and increase the chances of survival for the vessel and its crew. Jettisoning is a common practice in emergency situations at sea, where the safety of the vessel and its occupants takes precedence over the preservation of the cargo.

A franchise deductible refers to the amount of loss that must be incurred before any payment is made by the insurance company. In this case, the correct answer states that no payment is made until the loss equals or exceeds the deductible amount, and then the loss is paid in full. This means that the insured party must bear the initial cost of the loss until it reaches or surpasses the deductible amount, at which point the insurance company will cover the remaining expenses.

The given correct answer states that building losses are not covered on an "all risk" basis. This means that if there is any damage or loss to the building, it will not be covered by the insurance policy unless it falls under specific named perils or causes of loss that are explicitly listed in the policy. This is in contrast to the other statements which mention that building losses are paid at actual cash value (ACV), contents losses are paid at ACV, and lightning is a covered cause of loss.

An insurer must give the insured 45 days' notice if they want to non-renew a Commercial Property policy. This allows the insured sufficient time to find alternative coverage or make necessary arrangements.

The correct answer is $2,000,000. The aggregate coverage for Products and Completed Operations is the maximum amount that the insurance policy will pay out for all claims combined during the policy period. In this case, Glenda's Card Shop has a Business Owners Policy with $1,000,000 for liability, and the aggregate coverage for Products and Completed Operations is $2,000,000. This means that if multiple claims are made against the business for products or completed operations, the insurance policy will cover up to $2,000,000 in total.

The correct answer is Fire. Fire is not considered a peril of the seas because it is not directly related to the natural elements or conditions of the sea. Wind, waves, and sinking are all perils that can occur at sea due to weather conditions or accidents. However, fire is typically caused by human factors such as electrical malfunctions or accidents, rather than being a direct result of the sea itself.

According to F.S. 324.011, the Financial Responsibility Law is triggered by an accident that involves bodily injury, property damage when a vehicle is rendered inoperative, or certain serious traffic violations such as driving under the influence and committing a felony with a motor vehicle. This law requires individuals involved in such accidents to have proof of financial responsibility, typically in the form of liability insurance, to cover any damages or injuries caused.

The Office of Insurance Regulation is responsible for overseeing insurance policy forms, rules, and rates in Florida. They have the authority to approve most forms before they can be used and regularly review companies' rules and rates to ensure compliance with state laws. This office plays a crucial role in regulating and monitoring the insurance industry in Florida.

The loan officer's requirement for Jim and Glenda to purchase insurance from the bank in order to qualify for the loan can be considered an example of coercion.

In this case, the loan officer is using the requirement of purchasing insurance as a means to pressure Jim and Glenda into complying with their demands.

A first party claim refers to a claim made by the policyholder, insured, or beneficiary directly against the insurer who issued the contract. This means that the individual who has entered into the insurance contract is making a claim for coverage or benefits directly to the insurance company. It is called a first party claim because the claim is being made by the first party involved in the contract, which is the policyholder or insured.

An endorsement is a document that is attached to the policy and modifies or changes the original policy in some way. It can add or remove coverage, amend policy terms, or make any other necessary adjustments to the policy. Endorsements are typically used to tailor the policy to the specific needs of the insured, providing flexibility and customization options.

The correct answer is $300 on bail bonds. This is because all the other options listed (release of attachment bonds, $200 per day loss of income, and interest on judgments) are examples of supplementary payments that may be covered under a Personal Auto Policy. However, $300 on bail bonds is not typically covered as a supplementary payment under this policy.

According to F.S. 624.06, an insurer formed under the laws of any state, district, territory, or commonwealth of the United States other than the current state is known as a foreign insurer.

The correct answer is Premium Finance Agreement.

A Physicians, Surgeons, and Dentists liability insurance policy typically covers various forms of negligence or errors in medical treatment, such as failure to properly treat an injury, forgetting to remove clamps after surgery, and prescribing the wrong medication. However, criminal acts by a doctor, which involve intentional harm or illegal activities, are generally excluded from such policies. This is because insurance policies are designed to cover unintentional mistakes or negligence, not intentional wrongdoing. Therefore, criminal acts by a doctor would not be covered by a Physicians, Surgeons, and Dentists liability insurance policy.

Negligence refers to the failure to exercise the necessary level of care that the law expects in order to prevent others from being exposed to an unreasonable risk of harm. It involves not acting in a prudent manner that a reasonable person would have acted in similar circumstances. Negligence can lead to legal consequences if it causes damage or injury to others.

PIP stands for Personal Injury Protection, which is a type of insurance coverage that pays for medical expenses and lost wages in the event of an accident. The given answer states that PIP is primary to all coverages except Workers' Comp.

In such cases, Workers' Comp insurance will be the primary coverage.

Under the Dwelling Program forms, vandalism is not covered after the building has been vacant for 60 days. This means that if a building remains vacant for more than 60 days, any damage caused by vandalism will not be covered by the insurance policy. This provision is in place to encourage property owners to take necessary precautions to prevent vandalism and ensure that their buildings are occupied or regularly checked to minimize the risk of damage.

Part-time employees working 10 hours per week are considered "employees" as it relates to Worker's Compensation Insurance. Worker's Compensation Insurance is designed to provide benefits to employees who are injured or become ill due to their work. While independent contractors, commissioned real estate agents, and unpaid volunteers may also perform work, they are not classified as employees and may not be covered by Worker's Compensation Insurance. However, part-time employees working a minimum of 10 hours per week are typically considered eligible for coverage under this insurance.

Barratry refers to the fraudulent actions committed by the master or crew of a ship, with the aim of benefiting themselves at the expense of the ship owner. This can include activities such as theft, smuggling, or intentionally causing damage to the ship. The term "barratry" specifically pertains to fraudulent acts committed by those in charge of the ship, distinguishing it from other forms of fraud or illegal activities that may occur on board.

Confusion of goods is a peril that is unique to policies covering dry cleaners. This refers to situations where the dry cleaner accidentally mixes up or misplaces customers' clothing, leading to confusion and potential loss or damage of the items.

Smoke is an example of a loss covered by both an HO-3 and an HO-2 policy. This means that if smoke damage occurs to the insured property, both types of policies would provide coverage for the resulting losses.

The correct answer is products and completed operations exposure. This liability exposure from John's Commercial General Liability Policy would provide coverage for the event where many attendees became ill and were diagnosed with food poisoning. This exposure covers any claims arising from the products (food) that John's catering company provided at the event, as well as any claims arising from completed operations (the catering service itself). Therefore, if the food served at the event caused the attendees to become ill, this exposure would provide coverage for any resulting claims.

Subrogation is the correct answer because it refers to the transfer of rights from an insured party to their insurance company after they have been compensated for a loss. In this scenario, John received $1,500 from his insurance company, which means he transferred his right to seek compensation from the other party to the insurance company. Subrogation is a common policy condition in property and liability insurance policies.

The excess policy will only come into effect after all other insurance policies have been exhausted. This means that the individual or entity must first utilize all available insurance coverage before the excess policy will provide additional coverage. Once all other insurance options have been used up, the excess policy will then kick in to provide further protection or coverage.

The addition of Hangarkeeper's Liability coverage is typically done by attaching a hangarkeepers liability endorsement to the airport liability policy. This endorsement specifically adds the Hangarkeeper's Liability coverage to the policy, providing protection for the hangarkeeper against liability claims arising from damage to aircraft or property of others while in their care, custody, or control.

A "cost plus" plan is another term for a retrospective rating plan. In this type of plan, the insurance premium is determined based on the actual costs incurred by the insured, rather than a predetermined rate. The premium is calculated retrospectively, taking into account the actual claims experience and expenses of the insured. This allows for adjustments to be made based on the actual costs, providing a more accurate reflection of the risk and cost associated with the insured.

Constructive total loss refers to a situation where the cost of salvaging and reconditioning a vessel is higher than its actual value. In such cases, it is not economically feasible to repair the vessel, and it is considered a loss. This term is commonly used in marine insurance to determine whether a vessel should be considered a total loss or not.

The concept of indemnity in insurance refers to the principle of restoring the insured to the same financial position they were in before the loss occurred. Paying the insured the actual cash value of a television that is 3 years old best illustrates this concept. By reimbursing the insured for the current value of the television, the insurance company is providing indemnity by compensating for the loss without overcompensating or undercompensating the insured.

The correct answer is actual cash value. This term refers to the cost of replacing an item of property at the time of loss, taking into account depreciation. It represents the value of the item in its current condition, considering factors such as age, wear and tear, and obsolescence. It is often used in insurance claims to determine the amount of compensation that will be provided for a damaged or lost item.

Nonresidents are required to comply with the Florida No-Fault Law if they have a vehicle in Florida for more than 90 days of the preceding 365 days. This means that if a nonresident owns a vehicle and keeps it in Florida for more than 90 days within a year, they must follow the regulations outlined in the Florida No-Fault Law. This law includes requirements for personal injury protection (PIP) coverage and other provisions that nonresidents must adhere to if they meet this criterion.

The correct answer is "Inside the Premises - Theft of Money and Securities" because this coverage provides protection for the theft of money and securities that occurs inside the premises of the bakery. Since the deposit bag with the cash disappeared while closing for the day, it can be considered a theft that happened within the premises.

"Replacement cost value" is the correct answer because it refers to the valuation method in which the insurance company pays the cost of replacing damaged or lost property with a new one, regardless of the item's actual cash value or depreciation. This method ensures that the insured party receives a new item of similar kind and quality, without considering its age or condition. It is often referred to as "new for old" because it provides compensation for the full replacement cost.

Liability policies typically define an "occurrence" as an accident, which can include continuous or repeated exposure to harmful conditions. This means that an event or situation that causes damage or injury, whether it happens once or over a period of time, would be considered an occurrence under the policy. The term "occurrence" is used to encompass a wide range of accidents or incidents that may result in liability claims.

The correct answer is Portable Electronic Equipment. In homeowners property insurance, Coverage C typically covers personal property. However, certain items may be excluded from coverage, and in this case, portable electronic equipment is listed as an exclusion. This means that if any damage or loss occurs to portable electronic equipment, it may not be covered by the insurance policy.

In a Business Auto Coverage form, Symbol 7 is used to apply coverage to specifically described vehicles. This symbol is also known as the "specifically described autos" symbol. It allows the policyholder to list the specific vehicles that they want to be covered under the policy.

Liability insurance is crucial for individuals who may face legal liabilities in their personal or professional lives, ensuring that they are financially protected in case of any legal obligations or claims.

Umbrellas and excess liability policies are used when the basic liability limits provided by a policy are not enough for an insured's needs. These coverage forms provide additional amounts of liability coverage. Umbrella policies provide coverage that extends beyond the limits of the underlying policies, while excess liability policies provide coverage that kicks in once the limits of the underlying policies have been exhausted. Both forms help ensure that the insured has sufficient coverage in case of a liability claim.

In a commercial condo situation where both the building form and the unit owner's form cover the same property in a loss, the association form is considered primary and the unit owner's form is considered excess. This means that the association form will be responsible for covering the loss up to its policy limits, and any remaining amount will be covered by the unit owner's form.

Rita does not own a vehicle but still wants to be covered for liability, medical payments, and uninsured motorist while driving someone else's car. In this case, she would purchase Named Non-Owner Coverage. This type of coverage is specifically designed for individuals who do not own a vehicle but still want to have insurance coverage while driving other people's cars. It provides liability, medical payments, and uninsured motorist coverage for the named insured (Rita) while operating a vehicle that is not owned by her.

The basic limit for loss assessment in the homeowners policy is $1,000. This means that in the event of a covered loss to a shared or common area of a homeowners association, the policy will provide coverage up to $1,000 for the insured's portion of the assessment. This limit ensures that the insured is protected financially in case of any loss or damage to the shared property.

An arbitration clause is a type of clause that will apply to resolve disagreements between the insurer and insured as to the amount payable for a claim. This clause refers to the process of resolving disputes outside of court, where a neutral third party (arbitrator) is appointed to make a binding decision. It is commonly used in insurance contracts to provide a fair and efficient mechanism for resolving conflicts between the parties involved.

This question is asking for the coinsurance options under the Business Income Coverage Form that are NOT included. The correct answer is 75%. This means that 75% is not one of the coinsurance options available under the Business Income Coverage Form.

When John chooses to be covered by his own insurance instead of collecting damages from the negligent party, he is effectively transferring his rights to his insurer. This practice is known as subrogation. Subrogation allows the insurer to step into the shoes of the insured and pursue the negligent party to recover the amount paid for the claim.

Sliding is the correct answer because it refers to the practice of charging an applicant for additional coverage without their knowledge or consent. This can be done by including the cost of the ancillary coverage in the overall price of the auto insurance policy, making it appear as if the applicant agreed to it. Sliding is considered unethical and illegal because it deceives the applicant and results in them paying for coverage they did not request or want.

The Office of Financial Regulation provides regulatory oversight to banks, credit unions, finance companies, and the securities industries. This agency is responsible for ensuring that these financial institutions comply with laws and regulations to protect consumers and maintain the stability of the financial system. The Securities and Exchange Commission is a separate agency that focuses specifically on regulating the securities industry. The Office of Insurance Regulation and the Department of Financial Regulation may have oversight responsibilities in their respective areas but are not the primary agency for the industries mentioned in the question.

The Cause of Loss - Basic Form provides coverage for perils such as riot, sprinkler leakage, and lightning. However, it does not provide coverage for the peril of weight of ice, snow, or sleet. This means that if there is damage or loss caused by the weight of ice, snow, or sleet, the policyholder would not be covered under the Cause of Loss - Basic Form.

HMO stands for Health Maintenance Organization. It is a program that offers comprehensive health services to members for a prepaid fixed fee. The main goal of HMOs is to focus on preventive activities and promote overall health and wellness. HMOs typically require members to choose a primary care physician who coordinates their healthcare and provides referrals to specialists when needed. This model aims to provide cost-effective and coordinated care to improve health outcomes.

The FWCJUA, or the Florida Workers' Compensation Joint Underwriting Association, is a program that provides coverage for individuals who are unable to secure coverage in the voluntary market. It is designed to be self-supporting with actuarially sound rates, meaning that the premiums collected are expected to cover the costs of claims and administrative expenses. Employers receive a 30-day binder, which means that they are provided with temporary coverage while their application is being processed. However, it is not a requirement for the FWCJUA coverage to be denied by at least one standard carrier.

A watercraft endorsement can be added to the homeowner's contract to provide coverage for watercraft that is excluded under the HO policy itself. This endorsement is an additional provision that modifies the terms and conditions of the policy to include coverage for watercraft. By adding this endorsement, the homeowner can ensure that their watercraft is protected and any potential losses or damages related to the watercraft are covered by the insurance policy.

A "controlled" Inland Marine form refers to a standard provisions form that is developed and filed for uniform use. This means that there is a set form that all companies must use, ensuring consistency and uniformity in the coverage provided. This helps to streamline the process and make it easier for both insurers and insureds to understand and compare policies. It also ensures that there are no discrepancies or variations in coverage between different companies' forms.

John's PAP (Personal Auto Policy) has combined single limits of $300,000. This means that the policy will cover up to $300,000 in total for bodily injury and property damage resulting from an accident. In this case, the other party suffered injuries totaling $75,000 and property damages totaling $150,000. Since the combined single limits of John's policy is $300,000, his policy will cover the full amount of the injuries ($75,000) and $150,000 of the property damages, totaling $225,000.

The correct answer is "Electronic wheel chair" because it is not excluded under Coverage C - Personal Property. The other options listed are exclusions under Coverage C - Personal Property.

It involves the process of retrieving and restoring items that have been damaged or deemed as a loss. The salvage value is the amount of money that can be obtained from selling the recovered property. This helps to offset the cost of the insured loss, making salvage an important aspect of insurance claims and risk management.

The correct answer is Motor truck cargo policy. A motor truck cargo policy covers the liability of a common carrier for damage to property of others while it is being transported. This type of policy is specifically designed for carriers who transport goods using motor trucks. It provides coverage for any damage or loss that may occur to the cargo during transit, ensuring that the carrier is protected financially in case of any accidents or incidents that result in damage to the property being transported.

The correct answer is "Unlawful taking of property to the deprivation of the insured." This definition accurately captures the essence of employee theft, which involves the unauthorized taking of property belonging to the employer or insured party. It highlights the illegal nature of the act and emphasizes that it results in the loss or deprivation of the owner's property. The other options, such as any criminal act, any act of stealing, or armed robbery of an employee, do not specifically address the context of employee theft and are too broad or unrelated to the concept.

A lessee of a vehicle for 3 months is not considered an owner of a "defined motor vehicle" under the No-Fault law. The No-Fault law typically considers the legal title holder as the owner of the vehicle. However, a lessee of a vehicle for 3 months does not have legal title ownership of the vehicle, as they are only leasing it for a temporary period. Therefore, they are not considered an owner under the No-Fault law.

Part D-Damage to Your Auto applies to all vehicles listed on the declarations page, a rental car, and your neighbor's car which you borrowed only once and damaged when hitting a tree. However, it does not apply to a vehicle furnished to you by your employer.

This means that both the person applying for the insurance and the insurance producer must confirm that they have searched for coverage from other authorized insurers and found that none of them offer rates within 15% of the rate offered by Citizens Property Insurance Corp.

An insurer has a responsibility to respond promptly after having received a notice of claim. This is because a notice of claim is a formal communication from the insured party to the insurance company, informing them about a potential claim or loss. It is crucial for the insurer to promptly acknowledge and investigate the claim to fulfill their responsibility towards the insured party and provide timely assistance or settlement.

The correct answer is "Yes, it would be covered in full under section II (Damage to Property of Others)". This is because section II of the HO-2 policy provides coverage for damage to property of others, which includes situations where the insured accidentally damages someone else's property while it is under their custody, control, and care. In this case, John accidentally dropped and damaged Robert's entertainment system while helping him move, so the policy would provide coverage for the cost of replacing it.

Hospitalization expense insurance is a type of health insurance policy that is specifically designed to provide coverage for basic hospitalization expenses. This includes expenses such as room and board in the hospital, nursing care, laboratory fees, operating room costs, and medical supplies. This type of insurance policy aims to indemnify the insured by reimbursing them for these necessary expenses incurred during a hospital stay. Accident insurance, surgical expense insurance, and hospital indemnity insurance may provide coverage for other types of medical expenses, but they do not specifically focus on hospitalization expenses.

The Building and Personal Property Coverage Form contains a vacancy provision that suspends losses from certain perils and reduces losses from other perils. This provision applies when the building has been vacant for 60 days.

The correct answer is "catastrophic ground cover collapse."
