Managing The Relative Volumes Of Participating And Nonparticipating Business In A Mutual Life Company, Robert G. Chadburn
Managing The Relative Volumes Of Participating And Nonparticipating Business In A Mutual Life Company, Robert G. Chadburn
Journal of Actuarial Practice (1993-2006)
Management decisions of a mutual life company involving the amounts and relative proportions of participating (with profits) and nonparticipating (without profits) business and the level of expenses are examined in relation to their effect on participating policyholders' returns. A particular expense ratio is defined that plays a key role in a framework for making such decisions. The sensitivity of participating policy returns to changes in each factor are analyzed. Companies with expense ratios (as defined) of less than 2 are shown to prefer a different strategy from companies with higher ratios. There is an incomplete tendency for the ratio to …
On The Equivalence Of The Loss Ratio And Pure Premium Methods Of Determining Property And Casualty Rating Relativities, Robert L. Brown
On The Equivalence Of The Loss Ratio And Pure Premium Methods Of Determining Property And Casualty Rating Relativities, Robert L. Brown
Journal of Actuarial Practice (1993-2006)
There are two distinct stages in the property and casualty ratemaking process. First, there is the portfolio average rate change. Second, there is the adjustment of classification relativities. It is well known that the loss ratio and pure premium (also called the loss cost) methods are algebraically equivalent in the stage called the portfolio average rate change. This paper reviews the proof of this equivalence. Further, it is proved algebraically that the loss ratio and pure premium methods are also equivalent in calculating classification relativities (or differentials) if certain data requirements can be met. A short numerical example of this …

The Definition Of Insurance: Implications For A Health Insurance Demand Model, Mark J. Browne
The Definition Of Insurance: Implications For A Health Insurance Demand Model, Mark J. Browne
Journal of Actuarial Practice (1993-2006)
This paper uses data from the 1977-78 National Medical Care Expenditures Survey to evaluate five different measures of insurance: a family's expected out-of-pocket payment for medical care, the expected value of the indemnity (fee-for-service) benefits from an insurance policy for a family, the percentage of the expected loss that the insured pays, the policy premium, and the policy limit of coverage. The study provides information that can help us understand whose insurance coverage will change significantly as a result of health care reform. For example, it shows that those with low income (such as minorities, families headed by females, and …
Socially Responsible Accounting Reporting: Financial Aspects, A. Sadeghzadeh
Socially Responsible Accounting Reporting: Financial Aspects, A. Sadeghzadeh
Faculty of Business - Accounting & Finance Working Papers
The shortcomings of financial reports in some respects, have been criticised by many researchers and academicians. In this study some of the main shortcomings, associated with the acknowledged functions of financial reports, are pointed out and the necessity for regulating accounting reporting is justified. Based on the generally accepted concept of full disclosure, the role and responsibilities of financial reporting is highlighted and "socially responsible accounting reporting", in relation to the influence of culture on accounting, is defined.
