Commercial Insurance is a large stock property and liability insurer that specializes in the writing of commercial lines of insurance. The board of directors has appointed a committee to determine the feasibility of forming a new subsidiary insurer that would sell only personal lines of insurance, primarily homeowners and auto insurance. The new insurance company would have to meet certain management objectives. One member of the board of directors believes the new insurer should be legally organized as a mutual insurer rather than as a stock insurer. Assume you are an insurance consultant who is asked to serve on the committee. To what extent, if any, would each of the following objectives of the board of directors be met by formation of a mutual property and casualty insurer? Treat each objective separately.

a. Commercial Insurance must legally own the new insurer.

b. The new insurer should be able to sell common stock periodically in order to raise capital and expand into new markets.

c. The policies sold should pay dividends to the policyholders.

d. The new insurer should be licensed to do business in all states.

Mike took his friend, Donna, out to dinner on her birthday. While driving Donna home, Mike became ill and asked Donna to drive. While driving Mike's car, Donna negligently injured another motorist when she failed to stop at a red light. Mike has an auto insurance policy with a liability insurance limit of $250,000 per person for bodily injury liability. Donna has a similar auto insurance policy with a liability limit of $100,000 per person.

(i) If a court awards a liability judgment of $100,000 against Donna, how much, if any, will each insurer pay?

(ii) If the liability judgment is $300,000, how much, if any, will each insurer pay?

(iii) Assume that Mike cannot afford to pay the premium and lets his auto insurance policy lapse. At the time of the accident, he is uninsured. If the liability judgment against Donna is $100,000, how much, if any, will Donna's insurer pay?

In calculating insurance premiums, the actuarially fair insurance premium is the premium that results in a zero NPV for both the insured and the insurer. As such, the present value of the expected loss is the actuarially fair insurance premium. Suppose your company wants to insure a building worth $490 million. The probability of loss is 1.42 percent in one year, and the relevant discount rate is 2.5 percent.

a.

What is the actuarially fair insurance premium? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 32.)

b.

Suppose that you can make modifications to the building that will reduce the probability of a loss to .85 percent. How much would you be willing to pay for these modifications? (Enter your answer in dollars, not millions of dollars, e.g., 1,234,567. Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole dollar amount, e.g., 32.)
