Description

Focusing on problem-solving, this insurance primer offers both the business managerial aspects of risk management and insurance, and the numerous consumer applications of the risk management concept and insurance transaction. It explores the three most common types of insurance - homeowners, auto, and life - from a finacial planning/risk management perspective. New features for this edition are an additional chapter on risk management, and research assignments, many of which require the use of a computer and spreadsheets.
