ItemThe Housing Commission of Victoria: powers, policies and administrative organization.( 1969)In the first part of the essay we examine the policies the Housing Commission has adopted to implement the above objectives. Each objective is examined separately, following the practice in the legislation, where they are separated into separate parts of the Act. In reality, however, policy concerning one will be affected by the others, and vice versa. Brief summaries of relevant legislation stating and controlling these objectives are found immediately preceding each section. A copy of the Housing Act 1958 has been enclosed inside the back cover for detailed reference. The second part of the essay is concerned with the administrative organization of the Housing Commission.

ItemFire insurance(University of Melbourne, 1969)The Insurance Premium is the Insurer�s selling price. In commerce the selling price is based on the following : -Manufacturing cost, -Administrative and Selling expenses, -Margin for profit. The main variable in the Insurer�s selling price is also the main component, namely, the amount payable for fire losses. In industry costs can fairly accurately be determined before hand, but in Fire Insurance the main component of the Insurer's selling price i.e., fire losses, cannot be estimated with anything like the same degree of accuracy. In fixing the rate, the insurer must necessarily have regard to the incidence of loss. It would be inequitable for a flat rate to be fixed in respect of all types of risks. The insurer therefore aims at a suitable assessment of rate for different classifications of risks which will obtain for him an equitable contribution to his fund by each of his insured, and so enable him to meet his fire losses, pay his acquisition and administrative expenses and leave him a margin of profit.
