Human Life Value
The HLV figure you arrive at should help you make
a reasonably accurate assumption of the value of
your income.

• The Human Life Value (HLV) approach to
  calculating life insurance requirements accounts
  for 4 factors
• Annual income
• Annual expenses
• Number of years to retirement
• Inflation-adjusted cost of expenses

Step I

• Your Annual Income salarybonusemployee
  benefitsincome from investments.
• Deduct your personal expenses (food, clothes,
  travel, etc) from the above.
• What is left, is what your family consumes per
  annum.

Step II
The shortfall of the below mentioned expenses is
the amount that you should insure yourself for.

• See how many years are left till you retire.
• Project family expenses upto retirement,
  allowing for reasonable increments.
• Subtract any pension benefits your family gets
  upon your death.
• Add non-recurring expenses, like your childrens
  higher education.

Step III

• Calculate the shortfalls present value,
  allowing for a reasonable rate of inflation.
• Factor in your existing investments by deducting
  your net worth and accounting for any big-ticket
  loans, to arrive at a reasonable HLV figure.

  ascertain the amount of life insurance cover you
  need.

  every 5 years, at the least.
