Answer:

$100

Step-by-step explanation:

Insurance coverage is the sum of expenses paid and the premium paid on these expenses.Total coverage is the calculated by adding the premium and expense. In this question premium is the $75 and the expense ratio is 25%.

As we know

Coverage = Premium + Expense

Coverage = 75% + 25%

So, based on above equation we can calculated the expense as follow

Expense = $75 x 25% / 75% = $25

Coverage = $75 + $25 = $1,00
