Best Answer

In terms of motor vehicle insurance, when an insurance company writes a vehicle off, they have a dedicated salvage agent, who will give them back a certain percentage of its market value (pre-incident) for every damaged vehicle sold to them. If the cost to repair the vehicle is greater than its market value minus the percentage the insurance company receives, it is known as a constructive total loss (category D), as it is more economic for the insurance company to write the vehicle off than repair it. Equation: Cost to repair > Pre accident value - Salvage percentage return = Constructive write off
