Estate insurance analysis focuses on amounts that create liquidity needs at death. Age affects underwriting, premium cost, and life expectancy assumptions. Income may indicate lifestyle replacement needs, support obligations, or survivor dependency. The fair market value of a non-principal residence is directly relevant because accrued capital gains may create a tax liability on deemed disposition at death. Work location, by contrast, has little bearing on estate liquidity unless the scenario adds an occupational risk or employer benefit issue, which it does not. The planner should gather asset values, ownership form, liabilities, beneficiary designations, tax exposure, family obligations, and existing insurance before recommending coverage. In this question, option B is least important because it does not help calculate probate exposure, final tax, debt repayment, or survivor capital requirements. Study Guide focus: estate liquidity, deemed disposition, life insurance needs analysis, taxable assets, and client data collection. The file should therefore emphasize estate value, tax exposure, liquidity, and beneficiary obligations rather than workplace geography.
