Answer:

B) you make an offer to buy your neighbor's house.

Explanation:

An insurable interest is something (a material or immaterial object) that an individual believes he should obtain insurance to protect himself from unforeseen events such as economic losses, death, etc.

For example, you can obtain insurance for your house or your car (material objects), a bank can obtain insurance for your mortgage (immaterial object), etc.

When you make an offer to buy something, there is nothing (no object) you can insure since you don't own anything yet.

Answer:you make an offer to buy your neighbor's house.

Explanation:

As seen from the aforementioned alternatives which all have insurable interest.Thus they are expantiated;

1)Firstly,a savings and loan company holding a mortgage on your home has an insurable interest on interest of the property on insurance premium.

2)Secondly,your lease makes you liable for fire damage to your rented premises makes for an insurable interest which is in form of mortagee/morgator contract,even if it isn't your property,it makes you liable for an insurable interest.

3)Thirdly,you have custody of a valuable painting when the owner is away also makes you eligible for an insurable interest.Though here as carrier,it still gives the right to an insurable interest courtesy of the fact that it is in your custody.

Finally,you make an offer to buy your neighbor's house doesn't make you eligible for an insurable interest because it's just a matter of a vocal agreement,thus no transaction has been carried out and therefore,no property transferred to your custody either way.

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

They would need to have at least 3 computers

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Arrival rate = 15 persons per hour

Servicing rate = 60 / 10 = 6 persons per hour with one computer

Servicing rate with x number of computers = 6x per hour

Servicing rate at 90% utilisation = 6x (0.90) = 5.40x per hour

Therefore to service 13 arrivals per hour, we will need x computers = 15/ 5.40 = 2.78

With 2 computers, the service capacity will be 12 per hour and the utilisation will be 15/12 = 125%, which exceeds the organiser’s standard of 90% utilization.

With 3 computers, the service capacity increases to 18 persons per hour. If only 13 persons arrive, the utilisation rate will be 15 / 18 = 83.33%, below the required maximum of 90% utilisation.

Therefore, the 2.78 can be rounded off to next whole number 3 computers

Beasley Company currently sells its products for $30 per unit. Management is contemplating a 10% increase in the selling price

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Selling price per unit (next year) = 30 + 10 % of 30 = $33

Variable cost per unit (next year) = 30 * 40 % = $12

Contribution per unit (next year) = Selling price per unit (next year) - Variable cost per unit (next year) = 33 - 12 = $21

Fixed expenses = $68,250

Break even point (in units) = Fixed expenses / Contribution per unit.

Break even point (in units) = 68,250 / 21 = $3,250

How do the subheadings under "after high school" contribute to the organization of "career planning for high schoolers."? by inf

Delicious77 [7]

I believe the answer is: by informing readers of the education options being described

By putting the phrase "After high schools" , readers would know that the information that being put below the phrase would include the set of options/paths that can be done after graduation. In most career planning forms, it would contain information regarding college, scholarships, and the type of careers that can be taken with current high school diploma.
