Tim оwns а smаll lаndscaping cоmpany = Tim's Trees & Shrubs. When a custоmer requests landscaping services, Tim sends his employees out in a company truck: pulling a trailer that houses all of the landscaping tools and equipment. Tim's employees are very diligent. However, maybe one or two times per year, an employee will be careless while backing the trailer into a customer's yard and accidently cause damage to the customer's grass, small shrubbery, or sometimes minor damage to a customer's vehicle parked in the driveway. Tim knows these are simply accidents: since they do not happen very often and usually only cost around $400-$500 to repair the damaged property. During the one or two times this occurs per year: Tim's Trees & Shrubs will simply pay for the damage caused to customer's property out of the company's checking account. Which method of risk financing is Tim's Trees & Shrubs practicing?
Mаjоr Mаnufаcturing is a cоnstructiоn firm with 2,000 employees. Grace, the Risk Manager of Major Manufacturing, is considering two options to finance the risk of employee's sustaining injuries while working on the job (worker's compensation). The two options are either: self-insured retention ("self insurance") or risk transfer (in the form of a worker's compensation insurance policy from AIG): Grace gets a quote for worker's compensation insurance from AIG, the cost = $250,000 per year Grace does her own quantitative risk analysis, and determines that the Expected Value (Loss) of Major Manufacturing self-insured retaining the Worker's Compensation exposure = $100,000 per year Grace makes the decision to engage in self-insured retention: She takes the $100,000 which represents the "expected loss" = and places it in a high-yield savings account which produces 4.5% interest per year She then uses the additional $150,000 (that would have been spent on the insurance premium) = to be invested in a new project that has significant revenue growth potential Which of the following advantages of retention as a risk financing technique is evidenced in the above scenario?
