Indemnity means the insured in case of loss against which the policy has been insured, shall be paid the actual cost of loss not exceeding the amount of the insurance policy.
In life insurance, principle of indemnity does not apply as there is no question of actual loss. The insurer is required to pay a fixed amount upon in advance in the event of accident, death or at the expiry of the fixed term of the policy. Thus, a contract of a life insurance is a contingent contract and not a contract of indemnity.
If one of the insurers pays the whole loss, he is entitled to contribution from other insurers. The principle of contribution is a corollary to the doctrine of indemnity. It applies to any insurance which is a contract of indemnity. So, it does not apply to life insurance.
5) Answer: b)

6) Answer: d)
An insurance company’s incurred claim ratio is 90%. Then it indicates that, for every Rs.100 earned as premium, Rs.90 spent on the claims settled by the insurer. Therefore, Rs.10 is the profit to the company. If this incurred claim ratio is over and above 100%, then it indicates that they suffered a loss in their business.
