PPA: Private Passenger Auto (PPA) Ratemaking Data

In raw: R Actuarial Workshops

Description

This is data taken from Appendix A of the "Basic Ratemaking" study note by Werner and Modlin.

Rate change

This is a data frame with 7 observations of 5 variables.

• RateGroup: Letters from A-G. Note that rate group "A" does not have any rate changes.

• EffectiveDate: The effective date of the rate change.

• RateChange: A number indicating the rate change. Note that this is NOT done as a percent, i.e. .05 = 5

• RateLevelIndex: This is one plus the rate change.

• CumulativeRateLevel: This is the cumulative product of the RateLevelIndex. Note that this varies slightly from the figures shown in the study note. I believe this is due to rounding in the study note.

Accident year

This is a data frame with 5 observations of 4 variables.

• AccidentYear: The accident year.

• EarnedExposure: The exposure earned for the accident year.

• EarnedPremium: The premium earned for the accieent year.

• ReportedLoss: The reported loss and paid ALAE for the accident year.

Premium trend

Data frame with 25 observations of 3 values. The premium is shown at current level. This may be used to determine premium or exposure trend.

• QuarterEnding: The ending quarter as a Date type.

• WrittenPremium: Premium written during the quarter at current rate level.

• WrittenExposure: Exposure written during the quarter.
