    In 2011 the cost per thousand was Rs 0.0019 rounded off. Calculated as rate 4 divided by amount of insurance 2100.

    In 2012 the cost per thousand was Rs 0.0013 rounded off. Calculate as rate 5.5 divided by amount of insurance 4300.

    Therefore the 2012 rate was a decrease.

    The percentage decrease is calculated as follows: .

    .0019 - .0013 = .0006

    .0006 / .0019 = .3158 or 31.58%
