A flood inundates Howard's property, causing $100,000 of damage to the dwelling and $25,000 of damage to the detached garage. If Howard has a Dwelling Form flood policy with a $150,000 limit, how much will the policy pay for the damage to Howard's home and detached garage combined? (Ignore deductible amounts.)

Answer: $115,000. The Dwelling Form pays up to 10% of the Coverage A limit for detached garages. 10% of $150,000 is $15,000. So, Howard's policy will pay $100,000 for the damage to Howard's dwelling, plus $15,000 for his detached garage, for a total of $115,000.
