Domain 1: Louisiana Insurance Regulation 23% of exam
Question 1
During a homeowners renewal, a producer falsely says the existing policy will pay nothing for any roof loss, omits its actual wind coverage, and uses the misleading comparison to persuade the client to replace it with another insurer's policy. Which unfair trade practice is most directly involved?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - Twisting
Question 2
Under Louisiana law effective July 1, 2026, an insurer sends a commercial insured an otherwise valid nonrenewal notice 45 days before policy expiration. No shorter statutory exception applies. What is the most accurate result?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - The existing policy terms continue until 60 days after the notice was given
Question 3
A Louisiana insurer inspected a rental house, set a $240,000 valuation for premium purposes, and issued fire coverage on that amount. A covered fire later causes a total loss. The property is qualifying immovable property, the owner's insurable interest is at least $240,000, and no statutory exception or alternative loss-computation method applies. Under Louisiana's Valued Policy Law, what is the starting payment rule?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A - Pay the $240,000 stated valuation, subject to the policy limit and law
Question 4
A general contractor receives a certificate of insurance naming it only as a certificate holder. The subcontractor's CGL policy contains no additional-insured endorsement. The subcontractor later causes a liability loss. What status does the certificate alone give the contractor?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D - No insured status; the policy or an endorsement must grant it
Domain 2: Licensing and Regulation 1% of exam
Question 5
A homebuyer obtains an NFIP policy in connection with a lender's new mortgage loan. Closing is scheduled in five days. How does the standard NFIP waiting-period rule apply?

Domain 3: General Insurance Concepts 8% of exam
Question 6
An insurer lists a producer in its public agent directory, supplies branded applications, and permits the producer to collect initial premiums. The agency contract privately forbids binding a particular class of risk, but an applicant reasonably has no notice of that restriction. Which form of authority governs the applicant's reasonable belief that the producer can bind coverage?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A - Apparent authority
Domain 4: Property and Casualty Insurance Basics 15% of exam
Question 7
A commercial building has a replacement value of $800,000 and an 80% coinsurance requirement. The insured carries $480,000 of insurance. A covered partial loss is $160,000, and the deductible is $2,000. Assuming standard coinsurance settlement, what amount is payable?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - $118,000
Question 8
A Louisiana premises-liability action is governed by the comparative-fault rule effective January 1, 2026. The claimant's damages are $200,000, and the claimant is found 45% at fault. Which outcome follows?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: C - $110,000, because the award is reduced by the claimant's 45% fault
Question 9
An insurer reports a 67% loss ratio and a 38% expense ratio, producing a 105% combined ratio. Investment income is not part of that measure. How should the result be interpreted?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B - An underwriting loss before investment income
Domain 5: Dwelling Policy Concepts 4% of exam
Question 10
