Answer:

The correct answer based on the options given is A)

Explanation:

Actuarial Science is a branch of mathematics predominantly used by the Insurance Industry to create a formula or mathematical model that enables them to charge a profit-oriented rate for a particular risk.

If insurance companies charge arbitrarily, they may overcharge thus leading to a collapse of the system. If they undercharge, the system of pooling risks becomes unsustainable as claim paying capabilities are reduced.

Hence the need to use a mathematical model to ensure that rates give room for the ability of the system to meets it's obligations when they arise and for the companies to make a profit.

The use of models is the reason why sometimes there are hard markets in insurance and at other times there are soft markets.

Cheers!

Debora [2.8K]

To solve: If we assume there are 30 days in the month then the policy was held by the original owner from November 1st – May 15th which is 195 days. Assuming there are 30 days in the month there are 360 days in the year and that is equal to 1,080 for the insurance policy. If we divide the price of the policy, $1,164 by the amount of days the policy will be held for 1,080 then the policy is worth $1.08 a day. Next, take the amount of days the original owner held the policy and multiply it by the amount per day the policy costs (195)($1.08) = $210.60 Then, we need to subtract $210.60 from the full cost of the policy ($1,164 - $210.60) = $953.40 The buyer should pay the seller $953.40 at closing.

erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: b. an asset for the bank and a liability for Kellie's Print Shop. The loan does not increase the money supply.

Explanation:

Banks make money by loaning out money to people and companies. This means that loans are an asset to banks because it enables them to generate cash.

Kellie's Print Shop will have to pay back to loan however which means that it is a liability to them because they owe the bank.

This loan will not increase the money supply because if not explicitly stated that it does, we assume that the loan was made from bank deposits by other bank customers which means that it is already part of the money supply.
