| | CCH Business Owner's Toolkit | Guaranteed Replacement Value |
 | | With guaranteed replacement value, the insured is able to replace each item of covered property, at the current replacement cost, under the policy. |
 | | If the policy does not provide for guaranteed replacement value, the insured will recover only the depreciated value of the property, which, many times, will be only a fraction of the replacement cost. |
 | | Generally, guaranteed replacement cost will be available, by way of an endorsement, provided the insured purchases coverage for the building at the building's current value, as of the date of the policy. |
