They have told you that they would be like to replace 60% of the income until the age they would have retired, and they want to have $20,000 available in case there are medical expenses not covered by government programs, and $50,000 for possible home renovations. Solution Using the Disability Insurance Calculator: In order to upload as much completed information as possible to the calculator, click the drop-down menu beside Scenario and choose the spouse’s Disability. Immediately, the following fields will have changed from default values, to data already entered on other screens: Current Age, Current Earned Income, Replace Income to Age, Inflation, Current Insurance Coverage, Lump Sum Benefits and Index Rate on Benefits. The Percentage to Replace Salary field should be set to 60% as the clients indicated. Even though the Replace Income to Age was uploaded from the Personal Information screen, we could still elect to change it. As a default, it plans to replace income until the retirement age of the disabled person. This may not always be the case – but for these clients it is correct. The After Tax Rate of Return is a defaulted to the client’s inflation assumption plus 2.0%. Unless you wanted to override this value with a higher or lower assumption, this field can be left alone. The clients wanted to include two expenses, with individual costs of $20,000 and $50,000 – or $70,000 total. Set the Lump Sum Costs field to $70,000. The Lump Sum Benefits would include any insurance coverage that pays a certain amount immediately, as opposed to a monthly benefit. In this case, the Barbers have no such coverage, so the field can be left at the default of zero. Click Calculate at the bottom of the screen.
