Zach is looking for a homeowners insurance policy for his new house. AAA Insurance company has offered him a plan that insures his home annually for $0.36 per $100 of value in the home. In order to make calculations easier, Thompson’s Insurance lists their annual homeowners insurance premium a bit differently, at $3.63 per $1,000 of value in the home. Zach’s house is worth $289,000. What should Zach be thinking as he chooses between the two insurance companies?
