From the supplier: Fair compensation for an accident victim's losses in future earnings must be reliably estimated. Models tested to determine their predictive quality include the deterministic exponential model, the offset model, the stochastic exponential model, the Brownian motion model and the discrete time exponential model. Each model was found to perform equally well in distinct subsets of the 897 cases considered in the test. Further research is indicated to validate the assumptions of each model.
