To explain loss ratio we have to start by the factors included in a loss.

The loss factors are:

Claims paid plus

net reserves plus

incurred but not reported (IBNR) plus

provision for adverse deviation (PAD)

Total them and substract your total with

Total recoveries (actual +potential)

You now have the total loss.

Once we have these factors, we can divide the loss by the earned premium to obtain the ratio.

There's no fun in playing it safe. Why not try something a little unhinged?
