Practice question: Insurable Interest

Multiple Choice Medium

Practice question

Mira owns an orchard and validly contracts to insure her expected crop from those existing trees. Assume a risk of pecuniary loss and no other coverage issue. Is the fact that the crop has not yet grown alone fatal to insurable interest?
  1. No; an expectancy coupled with an existing interest in its source may qualify under Section14
  2. Yes; nothing expected can ever be insured
  3. Yes; only harvested cash is insurable
  4. No; because all hopes without any existing right qualify
  5. Yes; landowners cannot insure crops
