CAS Exam 5 Fall 2013, Question 11

Study guide: Exam 5

Given the following information:

Size of Loss $100,000 Limit Claims $100,000 Limit Losses $250,000 Limit Claims $250,000 Limit Losses $500,000 Limit Claims $500,000 Limit Losses
X \leq \$100{,}000 100 $8,000,000 35 $1,800,000 35 $1,800,000
\$100{,}000 < X \leq \$250{,}000 40 $7,400,000 25 $3,900,000
\$250{,}000 < X \leq \$500{,}000 15 $5,200,000
Limit Indicated Factor (pure premium generalized linear model analysis)
$100,000 1.00
$250,000 0.95
$500,000 1.15

For the $250,000 policy limit:

Part a (1.25 points)

Calculate the indicated increased limits factor, assuming a basic limit of $100,000.

Part b (0.5 points)

Explain the difference between the indicated increased limits factor calculated in part a. above and the generalized linear model results.

Part c (0.5 points)

Select an increased limits factor and briefly explain the rationale for the selection.
