Your scenario

Results appear after you enter valid values and calculate. Blank inputs are not treated as known zero costs.

Method and interpretation

Percentage deductible = the actual policy basis × percentage. Modeled payment = min(limit, max(0, covered loss − deductible)). This simplified settlement order may differ from your policy.

Calculations retain precision until display rounding. Blank required values block calculation. A negative cash flow or profit is a valid scenario, while an undefined return ratio is shown as not calculated.
