What this worksheet is for

A renewal increase can reflect exposure, pricing, claims, limits, forms, deductibles or fees. This analyzer calculates the disclosed cost change and flags when the two terms are not equivalent comparisons.

Compare expiring and renewal terms

Enter disclosed figures and policy language from both proposals. Do not combine a prior-term audit invoice with the new renewal premium.

Transparent method

How the result is produced

  1. Total change is renewal premium and fees minus expiring premium and fees; percentage change uses the expiring total as the denominator.
  2. You identify coverage and operational changes rather than the tool guessing what caused the increase.
  3. If material policy terms changed, the output labels the cost comparison as non-equivalent.
Boundaries

What it cannot determine

  • Why an insurer changed its rate
  • Whether an increase is lawful or reasonable
  • Whether replacement coverage is suitable
