IdemRt definition

Maybe I am missing something really basic but IdemRt is defined as

"Indemnity Rate in dollars per unit insured"

However as per the formula IdemRt = Idem$ / L$
where:
Idem$ = Indemnity (in dollars) paid by insurer to insured
L$ = Liability (in dollars) that insurer assumes

The formula seems to imply the definition should really be Indemnity Rate in dollars per $1 of liability. Similar to homeowner's TIV rates not per unit insured which I interpret as bushel of crop.
