TAIPA PRIVATE PASSENGER BASIC QUOTA CALCULATION<- Third Quarter 2004

An example of 3 companies is shown below, listing vehicles on policies in force
on the first day of the quarter shown. Each quarter has a total for the listed quarter:

Vehicles on Policies in Force as of:
Company	Dec 31, 2002	March 31, 2003	June 30, 2003	Sept 30, 2003	Dec 31, 2003
A	1,000	1,200	1,400	1,600	1,800
B	1,000	1,100	1,200	1,300	1,400
C	1,000	1,200	1,400	1,200	100
Total	3,000	3,500	4,000	4,100	3,300

The same companies are shown below; however, they are listed by average vehicles on policies in force for each quarter:

Average Vehicles on Policies in Force by Quarter
Company	1st Qtr 2003	2nd Qtr 2003	3rdQtr 2003	4th Qtr 2003	TOTAL
A	1,100	1,300	1,500	1,700	5,600
B	1,050	1,150	1,250	1,350	4,800
C	1,100	1,300	1,300	650	4,350
Total	3,250	3,750	4,050	3,700	14,750

The average is determined by adding the first day of 2 consecutive quarters and dividing by 2.
For Example:Company A: Dec 31, 2002 (1,000) + March 31, 2003 (1,200) ÷ 2.
1,000 + 1,200 = 2,200 ÷ 2 = 1,100 average vehicles for 1st Qtr 2003
The same calculation is shown for each company and quarter, plus the total is shown for all companies.

Basic Quota
Company
A	0.3924562
B	0.2650877
C	0.3424561
Total	1.0000000

For example: Company A: 4,474 divided by 11,400 = .3924562

If a company generates a negative quota, set the company’s basic quota to zero. Divide the remaining companies’ basic quota by the sum of the remaining companies’ basic quota.
