The Central City Church building was recently damaged by a fire that occurred overnight. The insurance company will not pay on a claim if it is determined that a fire was started deliberately. Since nobody was in the Central City Church building at the time the fire swept through the structure, the insurance company will most certainly reimburse the church for the damage caused by the fire.

Which of the following is an assumption that is required to reach the conclusion above?
a.Fire damages are generally the most expensive type of loss that insurance companies cover.
b.There was no one in the building at the time the fire swept through the structure.
c.No individual would fraudulently profit by setting a fire in the church building.
d.The insurance company typically pays claims for similar situations in other non-residential structures, such as office buildings and restaurants.
e.The fire was not deliberately started by someone who then left the building before the fire grew.

I would say Choice E? This seems to be what Manhattan GMAT calls a "Logic Gap" assumption question, or maybe even an alternate model of causation.

I would say that the assumption was drawn based upon "nobody was in the church". It has to tie back to that statement.

Yes the answer should be [spoiler]E[/spoiler]

If we negate the statement we get that "the fire was deliberately started by someone and then he left" and in this case the insurance company will not pay. But the insurance company will pay then the statement is right.

IMO: E. What is the OA?

Thanks.
