Life insurance policies often accumulate cash value over time, providing an additional financial benefit. Our Life Insurance Calculator helps you determine the potential cash value of your policy based on key parameters.
Formula: The formula used in the calculator is straightforward: Cash Value = Principal * (1 + (Interest Rate / 100) * Years). This formula considers the principal amount, interest rate, and the number of years the policy has been active.
How to Use:
- Enter the principal amount, which is the initial value of your life insurance policy.
- Input the interest rate as a percentage, representing the annual interest accruing on the policy.
- Specify the number of years the policy has been in effect.
- Click the “Calculate” button to obtain the estimated cash value.
Example: For instance, if you have a life insurance policy with a principal of $100,000, an interest rate of 5%, and it has been active for 10 years, the calculator will show the potential cash value based on the provided formula.
FAQs:
- Q: How accurate is the calculator’s estimate? A: The calculator provides a rough estimate and may not reflect the exact cash value due to policy-specific factors.

Conclusion: Our Life Insurance Calculator offers a convenient way to estimate the cash value of your policy. Remember that this is a tool for approximation, and for precise information, consult your insurance provider.
