What does ACV total mean?

What Is Actual Cash Value? After a loss, actual cash value (ACV) coverage pays you what your property is worth today. Actual cash value is calculated by taking what it would cost to buy your property new today, and subtracting depreciation for factors such as age, condition and obsolescence.

Which is better ACV or replacement cost?

While actual cash value is cheaper, replacement cost provides better coverage since it includes the recoverable depreciation of your property.

What’s the difference between RCV and ACV?

Replacement cost value (RCV) is a product at 100 percent, with no use or diminished life span. Actual cash value (ACV) is the use (or life left) of a product after a reduction for depreciation.
