Use developmentTriangle to convert the data to a development triangle, which is the standard form for representing claims data. Create two developmentTriangle objects, one for reported claims and one for paid claims.

dT_reported = developmentTriangle(data,'Origin','OriginYear','Development','DevelopmentYear','Claims','ReportedClaims')
dT_reported = 
  developmentTriangle with properties:

Create an expectedClaims object where the first input argument is the reported development triangle and the second input argument is the paid development triangle. 

earnedPremium = [17000; 18000; 10000; 19000; 16000; 10000; 11000; 10000; 14000; 10000];
ec = expectedClaims(dT_reported, dT_paid,earnedPremium)
ec = 
  expectedClaims with properties:

         ReportedTriangle: [1x1 developmentTriangle]
             PaidTriangle: [1x1 developmentTriangle]
            EarnedPremium: [10x1 double]

          CaseOutstanding: [10x1 double]
    EstimatedClaimsRatios: [10x1 double]
     SelectedClaimsRatios: [10x1 double]

Create a bornhuetterFerguson object with reported claims, paid claims, and expected claims to calculate ultimate claims, cases outstanding, IBNR claims, and unpaid claims estimates.

bf = bornhuetterFerguson(dT_reported, dT_paid, ec.ultimateClaims)
bf = 
  bornhuetterFerguson with properties:

     ReportedTriangle: [1x1 developmentTriangle]

Use summary to display the latest diagonal of both reported and paid development triangles, projected ultimate claims, cases outstanding, IBNR claims, and total unpaid claims estimates for a bornhuetterFerguson object.
