INSURING THE FLEET
12. The Yellow Cab Company of Statesville is interested in purchasing $250 deductiblecollision insurance and full-coverage comprehensive insurance to cover its fleet of 10taxi cabs. As a requirement for the job, all drivers already carry their own liabilitycoverage in the amount of 100/300/100. Statesville is rated as territory 2. Five of thecabs are 4-year-old Checker Towncars, model class Y. Three of them are 2-year-oldChrysler station wagons, model class R. The remaining two are new Buick sedans,in model class C. Because the vehicles are on the road almost 24 hours a day, theyare considered to be very high risk and carry a rating factor of 5.2. They are, how-ever, subject to an 18% multivehicle fleet discount.
a. As the insurance agent for Yellow Cab, calculate the total annual premium forthe fleet.
