5 RATING METHODOLOGY Forms-1 and 3 Manufactured/Mobile Home Rate Method Refer to the statewide rate pages to determine the base rate and relativities for: form type, Coverage- A, deductible, protection class, score, in/out of city, comprehensive personal liability credit, and glass breakage deductible. 1. Get the base statewide rate and multiply by the Form type relativity and round to the nearest five decimals. 2. Multiply the premium in step 1 by the Coverage A relativity and round to the nearest five decimals. 3. Multiply the premium in step 2 by the deductible relativity and round to the nearest five decimals. 4. Multiply the premium in step 3 by the protection status relativity and round to the nearest five decimals. 5. Multiply the premium in step 4 by the score relativity and round to the nearest five decimals. 6. Multiply the premium in step 5 by the In/Out of City relativity and round to the nearest five decimals. (If the manufactured home is located within the city limits it qualifies for In City rates. If the manufactured home is not located within the city limits the rating category is Out of City.) 7. If the manufactured home is a secondary residence, multiply the premium in step 6 by the comprehensive personal liability credit relativity, and round to the nearest five decimals. 8. If the glass breakage reduced deductible is requested, multiply the premium in step 7 by the glass breakage deductible relativity. 9. Round the premium from steps 1 through 8 to the nearest dollar. Stop here and store the premium (to be used to calculate all appropriate credit amounts). Multiply credits in the following order when applicable, rounding to the nearest five decimals with each multiplication: a. Multiply the previously calculated premium by the persistency relativity, if applicable, and round to the nearest five decimals. b. Multiply the previously calculated premium by the protective device relativity, if applicable, and round to the nearest five decimals. c. Multiply the previously calculated premium by the package credit, if applicable, and round to the nearest five decimals. d. Multiply the previously calculated premium by the age of home credit or adjustment, if applicable, and round to the nearest five decimals. e. Multiply the previously calculated premium by the Special Credit relativity, if applicable, and round to the nearest five decimals. f. Multiply the previously calculated premium by the Tie down credit relativity, if applicable. 10. Round the premium from steps 9a through 9f to the nearest dollar. Subtract this rounded premium from the stored amount in step 9, above, to get the total credit amount for the policy. 11. Add to step 10 all other optional coverages and their premiums (not specifically addressed in the rating method listed above) and total for the final premium. MH-4 Idaho September 2008

8 INSURANCE SCORE Policy premiums will include an adjustment for insurance score, based on the Fair-Isaac Assist 2.0 Homeowners 3/5 model There is no insurance score adjustment for miscellaneous optional coverages such as earthquake coverage, refrigerated food products, and scheduled personal property. The policyholder may request a new score in advance of the renewal if the current score was ordered no less than a year prior to the renewal date. The renewal premium will be adjusted accordingly to reflect the new score. If a consumer is charged higher premiums due to a disputed credit history that is later resolved, and the company is advised in writing of the resolution, the policy will be re-rated retroactive to the effective date of the current policy term. The consumer shall be charged the same premiums they would have been charged if accurate credit history was used to calculate an insurance score. The insurance score factors are found on page MH-5 and the rating methodology on page MH-4.
