Last year, Eleanor and Felix Knight bought a home with a dwelling replacement value of $260,000 and insured it (via an HO-5 policy) for $221,000. The policy reimburses for actual cash value and has a $500 deductible, standard limits for coverage C items, and no scheduled property. Recently, burglars broke into the house and stole a 3-year-old television set with a current replacement value of $500 and an estimated useful life of 9 years. They also took jewelry valued at $1,550 and silver flatware valued at $3,300. If the Knights' policy has an 80% co-insurance clause, do they have enough insurance? Assuming a 50% coverage C limit, calculate how much the Knights would receive if they filed a claim for the stolen items. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round the answer to the nearest cent. What advice would you give the Knights about their homeowner's coverage?
