    Answer:A. $24,000

    B. 36,000

    Explanation:

    The loss incurred by James is less than his coverage with each of the insurer.

    The sum is apportioned on pro rata basis on the ratio of total insured.

    $100,000 + $150,000=$250,000

    A share is $100,000/$250,000 / * $60,000

    A = $24,000

    B = $100,000/$250,000*$60,000

    = $36,000
