Answer: Mike's insurance company will pay $360. That is, 90 percent of $400.

Explanation: The insurance company pays 90 percentage of the replacement cost of personal property damaged by fire. Although the actual amount Mike paid for the stove was $350 but now was worth $90 due to the fire incident. The insurable amount that was expected to have been communicated to the insurance company was the current market value and not the actual amount parted with, at first. This is because the insured would be at a loss in case of any eventuality.

So it was expected that Mike would have communicated $400 as the current market value to the insurance company to be the insurable amount.

The insurance company would take possession of the damaged stove which is now worth $90 and sell it to salvage buyer most likely at that price to cushion the loss that was incurred. Also, the company would pay $360 to Mike while he bears the remaining balance, which is $40.

Stels [109]

Answer:

Fear appeal.

Explanation:

In this scenario, Life insurance companies like Prudential hope to get you to worry about how your loved ones will provide for themselves once you have passed away. In order to buttress their point, they paint a very gloomy picture of the possible consequences of not having life insurance, and they make a point of recommending that you act immediately because you never know when it is going to be too late. This is an example of a fear appeal.

A fear appeal can be defined as the act of persuading potential customers to change a risky behavior by highlighting adverse or negative consequences that may arise if they do not subscribe to a service or use a particular product. The main purpose of a fear appeal is to cajole people into buying a product or using a service by using their fears as a motivation.
