If insurance comes to an end before its enlisted or encrypted date, the date at which policy was cancelled is known to be cancellation date and this term refers to policy cancellation. Different cancellation methods are being used using online wheel calculator. Cancellation methods are pro rata, short rate(old short rate) and short rate (90% prorated).
One of the methods to calculate the returns after cancellation of the policy is pro rata, in this method return of premiums is calculated by taking into account total number of days remaining in policy completion and divided by total number of days of the policy and multiplying this factor with written premiums and hence return of premiums can be found out. Another way to find return of premiums is through short rata (old short rata) is which a table of factors is used to find out the penalties that can be lower or higher than the short rata and all it depends upon the date of cancellation. We can also use 90% pro rata method to calculate the return of premiums, in this method penalty is 10% of the unearned premiums. Using these methods return of premiums can be found out easily.
That date when insurance policy comes to an end before its actual ending date and when policy is terminated is cancellation date. Return of premiums owed by insured is practiced after cancellation date. Inception date is that date when insurance policy of some insured actually starts, it’s also known as effective date.

Policy term is actually the time duration during which policy provides coverage. It can be a year, 6 months or any duration of time. There is a difference in returned premiums and earned premiums. Return premiums are those premiums that are returned at the cancellation of the policy for insured. That amount can be calculated using any of the three methods pro date, short rata, short rata (90%) mentioned above of wheel calculator. Earned premiums are those written premiums considered to be earned by insured during the policy period of insurance. These premiums are valid until unless the insured expose to some loss or disclosure. For example, a policy of 365 days have a full premium of 120 days then 120/365 of the premium is considered to be earned and it’s never returned to the insured if the policy is cancelled.
There are also other types of premiums like unearned premiums and written premiums. Unearned premiums are like unearned premiums for insured and is written premium less the earned premium. Contrary to the earned premium, unearned premium will be returned to the insured if cancellation of the policy.
