Abstract
This study suggests the use of profit analysis and simulation for assessing the price of motor insurance. Utilization of profit analysis and simulation on insurance pricing has several advantages; they can be applied to identify the distributions that agree or disagree with the actual experience, to predict the performance of pricing models under alternative scenarios, and to assess the performance of pricing models by allowing random variabilities in the underlying distribution of such models.
