Option A is correct.

Aaron is paying the smallest premium possible with Company B

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets solve for all four companies and then find the answer.

Company A premium.

Face value = 1.86

Charges = 20% = 0.2

Charges = 0.2*250000 = $50000

Total charge = Charge × face value

= 50000 × 1.86 = $93000

Company B premium.

Face value = 1.86

Charges = 18% = 0.18

Charges = 0.18*250000 =  $45000

Total charge = Charge × face value

= 45000 × 1.86 = $83700

Company C premium

Face value = 2.07

Charges = 25% = 0.25

Charges = 0.25*250000 =  $62500

Total charge = Charge × face value

= 62500 × 2.07 = $129375

Company D premium

face value = 2.25

Charges = 15% = 0.15

Charges = 0.15*250000 = $37500

Total charge = Charge × face value

= 37500 × 2.25 = $84375

Therefore option A is correct.
