Homeowners policy: $300,000

Answer:

The personal umbrella policy is excess liability insurance that provides protection against legal liability that is over and above that provided by auto, home, and boat insurance. People with significant assets need an umbrella liability policy to cover lawsuits that can sometimes amount to millions of dollars.

The umbrella policy also has broad coverage that covers some claims that wouldn't be covered at all by home and auto insurance, such as personal injury lawsuits arising from false arrest, slander and libel, or rental units that the insured may own. Not only is the cost of direct damages covered, but also the cost of consequential damages, such as the lost income suffered by a severely injured person because of the injuries. The personal umbrella policy also pays for the legal defense of lawsuits that is in addition to the policy limit for damages. So if you are sued and held liable for $1 million, and your legal costs are $200,000, then a policy providing $1 million of coverage will pay the full claim plus the $200,000 for legal costs.

A company is to hire two new employees. They have prepared a final list of thirteen candidates, all of whom are equally qualifie
mojhsa [17]

Answer: 0.1282

Explanation:

Total number of possible outcome( total candidates) = 13

Total number of men = 13 - 8 = 5

Total number of women = 8

Number of candidates to be selected = 2

Find the probability that both are men :

Probability of 1st candidate being a male = required outcome ÷ total possible outcome = 5/13

Probability of second candidate being a male, means we now have 4 men left and a total of 12 = 4/12

Therefore, P = (5/13) × (4/12)

P = (5/13) ×(1/3) = 5/39 = 0.1282

What is the present value of receiving $100 investment two years from now at a 10 percent annual discount rate
guapka [62]

Answer: $121

Explanation:

The question simply wants us to find the present value of receiving $100 investment two years from now at a 10 percent annual discount rate.

This can be easily solved as follows:

For the first year, the $100 will be worth:

= $100 + ($100 × 10%)

= $100 + ($100 × 0.1)

= $100 + $10

= $110

The worth at the end of the second year will then be:

= $110 + ($110 × 10%)

= $110 + $11

= $121
