The United States Army considers itself descended from the Continental Army, and dates its institutional inception from the origin of that armed force in 1775. As a uniformed military service, the Army is part of the Department of the Army, which is one of the three military departments of the Department of Defense.
Pure risk, also known as absolute risk, is insurable. Speculative Risk: Three possible outcomes exist in speculative risk: something good (gain), something bad (loss) or nothing (staying even). Gambling and investing in the stock market are two examples of speculative risks.
The term inherent risk refers to the possibility of loss coming out of a situation or at work within a particular environment before any action has taken place to change or control the environment, and an example would be the possibility that a company's financial statements have included a crucial misstatement that comes from an omission or error that comes from a cause other than a simple lack of controls but instead from a situation of judgment or estimation.
