Life Insurance Policy Provisions, Options, and Riders

What problem is the common disaster clause written to solve?

Answer and explanation
Answer: C. The clause addresses deaths in a common accident where it cannot be shown who survived whom, and it presumes the beneficiary died first so the proceeds pass as the insured intended. Unrelated deaths, later deaths under a settlement option and a missing beneficiary are handled by other provisions.Source: PSI — New York DFS Insurance Candidate Information Bulletin — Outline, common disaster clause
