Wait, are we really counting IBNR? Seems off.

Definitely B, you need to include IBNR for accuracy.

I think we definitely divide cash by reported claims only, but I’m not 100% confident. It seems like IBNR might complicate things unnecessarily.

I’m a bit confused about whether we should just use reported claims or include IBNR too. I feel like I need to double-check my notes on this.

I remember a similar question where we had to consider IBNR, so I feel like option B makes the most sense here.

I think the cash-to-claims payable ratio should include both reported claims and IBNR, but I'm not entirely sure if that's how we calculated it in practice.

Hmm, I'm not too familiar with masking policies in SQL. I'll have to think this one through carefully.

This is a good test of my knowledge on financial statements. I'll need to apply my understanding of the definitions and classifications to determine which option is not a non-current asset. I'm feeling pretty confident I can figure this out.

Okay, let me review the options again. Picoseconds, microseconds, nanoseconds, or milliseconds? I think nanoseconds sounds right, but I'll double-check my notes to be sure.
