SECTION 1. PURPOSE

This revenue procedure prescribes the loss payment patterns and discount factors for the 2008 accident year. These factors will be used for computing discounted unpaid losses under § 846 of the Internal Revenue Code. See Rev. Proc. 2008-10, 2008-3 I.R.B. 290, for background concerning the loss payment patterns and application of the discount factors. This revenue procedure also corrects the discount factors for the Composite and International (Composite) lines of business for the 2006 and 2007 accident years in Rev. Proc. 2007-9, 2007-3 I.R.B. 278, and Rev. Proc. 2008-10, 2008-3 I.R.B. 290, for taxpayers that use the composite method of Notice 88-100, 1988-2 C.B. 439.

SECTION 2. SCOPE

This revenue procedure applies to any taxpayer that is required to discount its unpaid losses under § 846 for a line of business using discount factors published by the Secretary.

SECTION 3. CORRECTION OF REV. PROC. 2007-9 AND REV. PROC. 2008-10

.01 Rev. Proc. 2007-9, 2007-3 I.R.B. 278, prescribes the loss payment patterns and discount factors for the 2006 accident year. Rev. Proc. 2008-10, 2008-3 I.R.B. 290, prescribes the loss payment patterns and discount factors for the 2007 accident year. An error has been discovered in the composite discount factors for the 2006 and 2007 accident years that were determined for the Composite and International (Composite) lines of business for taxpayers that use the composite method of Notice 88-100, which is used for computing discounted unpaid losses for accident years not separately reported on the annual statement.

.02 Rev. Proc. 2007-9 as corrected for the Composite line of business provides: “Taxpayers that use the composite method of Notice 88-100 should use 90.1284 percent to discount unpaid losses incurred in this line of business in 2006 and prior years that are outstanding at the end of the 2016 taxable year.”

.03 Rev. Proc. 2007-9 as corrected for the International (Composite) line of business provides: “Taxpayers that use the composite method of Notice 88-100 should use 90.1284 percent to discount unpaid losses incurred in this line of business in 2006 and prior years that are outstanding at the end of the 2016 taxable year.”

.04 Rev. Proc. 2008-10 as corrected for the Composite line of business provides: “Taxpayers that use the composite method of Notice 88-100 should use 92.4923 percent to discount unpaid losses incurred in this line of business in 2007 and prior years that are outstanding at the end of the 2017 taxable year.”

.05 Rev. Proc. 2008-10 as corrected for the International (Composite) line of business provides: “Taxpayers that use the composite method of Notice 88-100 should use 92.4923 percent to discount unpaid losses incurred in this line of business in 2007 and prior years that are outstanding at the end of the 2017 taxable year.”

SECTION 4. TABLES OF DISCOUNT FACTORS

.01 The following tables present separately for each line of business the discount factors under § 846 for accident year 2008. All the discount factors presented in this section were determined using the applicable interest rate under § 846(c) for 2008, which is 4.06 percent, and by assuming all loss payments occur in the middle of the calendar year.

.02 If the groupings of individual lines of business on the annual statement change, taxpayers must discount the unpaid losses on the affected lines of business in accordance with the discounting patterns that would have applied to those unpaid losses based on their classification on the 2005 annual statement. See Rev. Proc. 2008-10, 2008-3 I.R.B. 290, section 2, for additional background on discounting under section 846 and the use of the Secretary’s tables.

.03 Section V of Notice 88-100, 1988-2 C.B. 439, sets forth a composite method for computing discounted unpaid losses for accident years that are not separately reported on the annual statement. The tables separately provide discount factors for taxpayers who elect to use the composite method of section V of Notice 88-100. See Rev. Proc. 2002-74, 2002-2 C.B. 980.
