Sample questions & answers
1. Under North Dakota law, an insurable interest in insured property need NOT exist:
In the period between inception and loss
N.D.C.C. 26.1-29-06 requires an insurable interest when the insurance takes effect and when the loss occurs, but not in the meantime.
2. Actual cash value is generally calculated as:
Replacement cost minus depreciation
Actual cash value generally equals the replacement cost of the property minus depreciation.
3. After paying a covered claim, an insurer's right to pursue a negligent third party who caused the loss is called:
Subrogation
Subrogation lets the insurer recover its payment from the negligent third party responsible for the loss.
4. When an insurer takes ownership of damaged property after paying a total loss and sells it to recover money, this is known as:
Salvage
Salvage is the insurer's recovery from selling damaged property it has taken over after paying a loss.
