Exercise
An insurer has classified a pool of policies into two classes: class A and class B. The probability of observing more than one claim during a single coverage period is zero for all policies and claim size is constant for all policies:
Class | Number of Policyholders | Probability of Claim | Claim Size |
---|---|---|---|
A | 400 | 0.05 | 100 |
B | 500 | 0.04 | 250 |
Using the normal approximation for aggregate losses, the insurer sets insurance rates at the lowest level that guarantees a profit 95% of the time.
Determine the rate for class B policyholders assuming that the expected profit % is the same for all policies.
