Business Insurance Cost Calculator & Quote Comparison
Enter up to three business insurance quotes, calculate total payment cost, compare policy terms, and turn missing details into questions for your agent.
What this worksheet is for
A lower premium is only meaningful when the proposals describe equivalent coverage. This worksheet keeps price, limits, deductibles, policy triggers, fees and unanswered questions in one comparison.
Enter three proposals
Transcribe the proposal—not what you remember from a call. Blank fields remain visible as questions.

How the result is produced
- The total is annual premium plus disclosed policy, broker and installment fees entered by you.
- Completeness is completed comparison fields divided by the fields shown. It is not a quality, coverage or insurer rating.
- Differences and blank fields are surfaced as questions; the tool never declares a policy suitable or superior.
What it cannot determine
- Whether a policy covers a particular claim
- Whether an insurer or proposal is suitable
- Undisclosed fees, exclusions or endorsements
