Exercise

You are given:

  1. Earned premium in CY1 was 500,000.
  2. Earned premium growth through CY3 has been constant at 10% per year (compounded).
  3. The expected loss ratio for AY1 is 40%.
  4. As of December 31, CY3, the expected loss ratio has increased 3 percentage points each accident year
  5. Selected incurred loss development factors are as follows:
12 to 24 months 1.25
24 to 36 months 1.2
36 to 48 months 1.1
48 to 60 months 1.07
60 to 72 months 1.05
72 to ultimate 1.000

Calculate the aggregate projected ultimate loss for accidents years 1-3 as of December 31, CY3 using the Bornhuetter-Ferguson method.

Solution: A

We compute:

Year Earned Premium Expected Loss Ratio Expected Loss Cumulative Development Factor Reserve
AY1 500,000 0.4 200,000 1.1 * 1.07 * 1.05 = 1.2356 (1-1/1.2356) * 200,000 = 38,135.32
AY2 550,000 0.43 236,500 1.2 * 1.1 * 1.07 * 1.05 = 1.483 (1-1/1.483) * 236,500 = 77,025.96
AY3 605,000 0.46 278,300 1.25 * 1.2 * 1.1 * 1.07 * 1.05 = 1.8534 (1-1/1.8534) * 278,300 = 128,143.5
Total: 243,305
