Net annual contribution = Annual premium − Annual policy fee
Net growth rate = Cash value growth rate + Dividend rate
Cash value = Previous cash value + Net annual contribution + ((Previous cash value + Net annual contribution) × Net growth rate)
Surrender charge = Cash value × Surrender charge rate
Surrender value = Cash value − Surrender charge − Loan balance
Net death benefit = Face value − Loan balance
Real cash value = Cash value ÷ (1 + Inflation rate)years
A whole life policy combines protection and savings. This calculator helps you measure both. It estimates premiums, cash growth, surrender value, and death benefit impact. It keeps the method simple. Yet it still offers more planning detail than basic tools.
Each year adds a premium contribution. A policy fee reduces that contribution. The remaining amount builds cash value. Growth and dividends are then applied. This creates a projection table that is easy to follow. You can compare how faster or slower growth changes the final value.
Cash value is not always the same as surrender value. Charges and policy loans reduce what you can receive. This matters when reviewing liquidity. The calculator shows that difference clearly. It also shows the net death benefit after subtracting any loan balance.
This tool is useful for learners, analysts, and policy buyers. It turns fixed inputs into clear lifetime estimates. You can test several scenarios quickly. That helps you see tradeoffs between premium cost and long term value. It also helps you spot the estimated break even year.
Use the example table as a starting point. Then enter your own assumptions. Try different fees, growth rates, and premium terms. Export the results for reports or reviews. Simple numbers make decisions easier. Clear projections support better policy evaluation over time.
It estimates total premiums, projected cash value, surrender value, net death benefit, real cash value, and a possible break even year.
No. Actual policies may use different fees, crediting methods, dividends, riders, and loan terms. This tool gives planning estimates only.
Surrender value subtracts surrender charges and loan balances. That makes it lower than the gross cash value shown in the projection.
It is the first projected year where estimated cash value becomes equal to or greater than total premiums paid.
Inflation shows the buying power of future value. It helps compare nominal growth with real long term purchasing strength.
This version is built around yearly values. For monthly payments, convert the total yearly amount before entering it.
A higher loan balance reduces both surrender value and net death benefit. It can also weaken the policy's overall efficiency.
Students, planners, agents, and policyholders can use it. It is useful for learning, reviewing assumptions, and comparing scenarios.
