So approximately 41% of 20% = 8% of all firms will have a larger factor as a result of the changing of the plans. Note that based on a study of rating years 2000 through 2004, it was previously estimated that of the remaining 20% of the firms that are not compensable claim-free, 44% of the firms would have larger factors, 39% would have smaller factors and 17% would have the sam
