question 6 of 9
what is the correct definition of a cosigner for a loan?
someone who will pay the electric bills for a borrower
someone who will pay a loan for a borrower.
someone who signs the loan documents.
someone who will promise to pay a loan if the borrower doesnt.

Explanation:

To determine the correct definition of a cosigner for a loan, we analyze each option:

• The first option is incorrect because a cosigner's role is related to the loan, not electric bills.
• The second option is incorrect as a cosigner doesn't typically pay the loan upfront but is a backup.
• The third option is incorrect because just signing documents doesn't define the cosigner's role; many parties may sign loan documents.
• The fourth option is correct. A cosigner is someone who agrees to pay the loan if the primary borrower fails to do so, acting as a guarantor.

Answer:

D. Someone who will promise to pay a loan if the borrower doesn't.
