The policy reimburses for actual cash value and has$500 deductible standard limits for coverage C items, and no scheduled property. Recently, burglars broke into the house and stole a two-year-old television set with a current replacement value of $600 and an estimated useful like of eight years. They also took jewellery valued at $1,850 and silver flatware valued at $3,000. a. If the Stillman's policy has an 80 percent co-insurance clause, do they have enough insurance? b. Assuming a 50 percent coverage C limit, calculate how much the Stillmans would receive if they filed a claim for the stolen items c. What advice would you give the Stillmans about their homeowner's coverage?
