ELB Rider in the Income Search Wizard

It is now possible to add the ELB rider within the Income Search Wizard!

The Income Search Wizard is a quick and easy way to calculate maximum tax-free income from Kansas City Life Insurance's SuperNOVA Universal Life, FlexWealth Universal Life, EquiFlex Indexed Universal Life, Compass Elite Indexed Universal Life, and Accumulator Variable Universal Life products. 

We have now added the option to include the ELB rider to make this wizard even more convenient. To add the ELB, select the checkbox at the bottom left. Once the ELB checkbox is selected, you have the option to either enter your own ELB amount or to select Max ELB Death Benefit.

After "Run Wizard" is clicked, this amount will be included in the results. If the amount entered is too high (based on the state chosen and the rider limitations) compared with the resulting specified amount calculated, the ELB amount will automatically be adjusted with the resulting ELB amount showing within the results section and on the illustration generated.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about adding the ELB in the Income Search Wizard or if you would like us to guide you through the process.

Have a Great Day,

Multiple Agents in the Income Search Wizard

The ability to choose which agent profile is shown on your illustration is now available on the Income Search Wizard!

We recently added the ability to have multiple sets of agent information on a single user's profile that could be used with the Quick Quoter.  To use this feature, you would first update your agent profile to include the information for the new agents by selecting Agent List on the Agent Home page.  Here you could update, add, or delete agents from your profile.  That same agent list is now accessible when using the Income Search Wizard!

Underneath the results section, there is now a field that provides you with the option to either run the illustration as yourself or as another agent that you have previously entered.

Selecting Another Agent allows you to pick which agent's information you would like to appear on the illustration.

Once you have finished setting up the case and have ran the wizard, check the output.  On the cover page in the presented by section it will list the new agent's information rather than your own.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about using multiple agents in the Quick Quoter or if you would like us to guide you through the process.

Have a Great Day,

Internal Rate of Return in the Quick Quoter

The Internal Rate of Return supplemental is now available to be added to illustrations using the Quick Quoter!

The IRR is a method used to determine the return on premiums paid into a life insurance policy.  It is the calculation of the interest rate required for the cumulative premiums paid accumulated with interest to equal the death benefit or surrender value of the policy in a given year.  Each year's IRR calculation assumes the policy is still inforce and the insured died or surrendered at the end of that year.

The Supplemental section will start collapsed.  To view the available supplementals for your case click the arrow to expand the section.

Currently the IRR is the only available supplemental in the Quick Quoter but keep checking back as we will be adding more!  

Like the riders, clicking on the name of a supplemental will give a quick overview of what the supplemental is.  To add the IRR simply check the box and run the illustration.

Please contact us if you have questions or would like to walk through adding the Internal Rate of Return supplemental to your illustration in the Quick Quoter.
