Exam DISC-RM Practice Question 410

Study guide: Exam DISC-RM

An auto insurer uses a multiplicative rating plan, and one minor violation carries a relativity of 1.10. Driver X's premium before the violation is $1,000, and driver Y's is $2,000. Each gets one minor violation. How do their premiums change?

  • A) Each pays $100 more, because a violation carries the same fixed dollar surcharge for everyone
  • B) X pays $100 more and Y $200 more, as the surcharge scales each premium
  • C) Each pays $200 more, because the surcharge is set by the higher-premium driver
  • D) Neither premium changes until the violation leads to a suspension of the driver's license
