Construction Accounting: Benchmarking / Ratios – Where Do I Find Data on Ratio of Insurance Premium to Sales ?

party_at_lake_vostok asked:


I am a construction insurance agent. I am looking for sources of construction accounting data. Specifically: Benchmarking / Ratios. More Specifically – Builders (Residential) and other General Contractors – Industry Standards – Benchmark Percentages – Insurance (non health) Expense as a Percentage of Sales / Gross Receipts.

It will have to be data divided into regions (within the US) and divided by size brackets – e.g. $ 50-100 million annual sales.

   Have you been to the federal governments web site, FirstGov.gov ? They have a lot of statistical data on there, or links to other agencies, federal, state or local that will have it.

   I recently learned how much rent should be charged for some agricultural land in the county where the land is located which was rated in three different classes, Good, Medium and Low quality for corn and soybean production. Took a bit of data mining and an open mind but found it within twenty minutes.

   Good luck.
