fin.life-insurance-need Calculator
Calculates total life insurance coverage needed from income replacement, outstanding debts, dependents' expenses, and existing assets. The DIME method (Debt, Income, Mortgage, Education) provides a structured framework — most people are systematically underinsured.
Inputs
Annual Income
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Years Income
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Debts
Reference formula or conversion factor shown for context.
Existing Coverage
Age in completed years. Many health and fitness formulas adjust for age.
Results
total coverage needed
The fraction of the total that is protected, tested, or accounted for. Higher coverage reduces risk of gaps.
income replacement need
Sample size or count used in the calculation.
debt coverage
The fraction of the total that is protected, tested, or accounted for. Higher coverage reduces risk of gaps.
existing coverage
The fraction of the total that is protected, tested, or accounted for. Higher coverage reduces risk of gaps.
coverage gap
The fraction of the total that is protected, tested, or accounted for. Higher coverage reduces risk of gaps.
rule of thumb
A widely used practical approximation or heuristic for this field — useful for quick estimates but not a substitute for rigorous calculation.
