Ah ok thanks, that's easy enough I suppose. I just wanted to be sure there wasn't something tricky/special about this question that I was missing.

Thanks for the thorough response, I see it now.

Why is the insurance charge being multiplied by the aggregate losses instead of the limited losses to get the aggregate excess loss cost?
-
So the wiki has the following two formulas for the Basic Premium of Limited Table M:
1)
The problem says that the Excess Loss Factor is 0.241. Wouldn't the Excess Loss Factor be a number such that if you multiply the Unlimited Expected Losses by the ELF then you get the Excess Losses? Ie: (Unlimited Expected Loss) * ELF = E - E[A_D]…
The solution seems to assume a log link, but I don't see anywhere in the question where that is explicitly stated. Should we always assume a log link then?
In the reading we are given the formula used in Step 1 in terms of E[A]:
I see, so a+L is the upper limit then, rather than L? Seems like kind of strange notation, but I thin I get it now, thanks!
