The calculation uses only your inputs. It does not account for changes in coverage, cancellation, late-payment penalties, taxes, financing terms or changes during the policy year.
Calculation method
Annual total: annual premium + additional annual fees.
Installment total: upfront payment + (number of installments × amount of each installment) + (number of installments × fee per installment).
Review before buying
Verify whether the insurer quotes an annual total, a deposit plus installments, or fees included in each payment. Confirm coverage dates and cancellation terms. This tool is for education, not financial or insurance advice.
