What is UPR and URR?

If UPR has something to do with unearned premiums, then the unearned premium is 50%.

If commissions are 30%, the commission in 2010 is 50% of 30% of $100, or $15, assuming commissions ar paid "as earned". If commissions are paid on an "advanced" basis, the commission paid in 2010 could be anywhere from $22.50 (75% of annual) to $30 (100% of annual).

No one can tell you what the Deferred Acquisition Cost is, because it can vary from one insurance company to another. It has also been prohibited in some states.

Question 3 makes no sense. Does it relate to the single policy with the $100 premium?

Have you asked any of the other students in your class for help?
