abstract="Examined in this paper are several different damage criteria that are currently applicable toward identifying bumper-involved insurance claims. The implications of each of these criteria in influencing the results of claims analyses are presented. In addition, a new cost-effectiveness measure, E, which is the product of insurance claim proportion and the average repair cost of these claims, is developed to quantify the risk or expected expense of repairing a vehicle in the first year of ownership due to a low-speed accident. The usefulness of this measure in performing insurance claim analyses is demonstrated.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
