         in valuation of potential property and liability
         losses.

Ans. The problems faced by the risk manager in the
          valuation of Potential Property and Liability Losses
          are as follows:
          The risk manager has to be concerned with estimating
          the values that may be at risk when a loss occurs in the
          future, and when their values would not be same as
          current values.

          The value of any asset that can be thought of in terms of
          the loss or additional expenses that an organization has to
          incur if deprived of the asset.

          They can be measured by :
          (i) Its replacement cost, or current purchase price (RC)
          (ii) Its current resale value or net realizable value (NRV)
          (iii) The net present value of its expected future earnings

               (NPV)

          Since one is concerned with future events, 'current' is
          taken as 'the time of loss'.
