Life insurance is a unique product. While many use it to protect their loved ones, it may also be used to donate money to charity, transfer a business interest, or pay off debts. Life insurance is one of the most useful financial products a client can own. However, the amount of life insurance a client needs can change over time and vary drastically depending on how it is being used. We often need to recalculate life insurance needs multiple times throughout a client’s lifetime.

In this course, we will explore some basic planning techniques involving life insurance, as well as approaches to calculating the actual life insurance need. Using real-life examples and discussions, we will compare the advantages and disadvantages of each approach. We will also discuss when an ILIT may come in handy, how life insurance can supplement retirement benefits, and its tax implications for both employers and employees.

Topic Areas:

Basic Types of Life Insurance
Human Capital & Life Insurance
Human Life Value Approach
Multiple of Earnings Approach
Needs-Based Approach
Special Uses of Life Insurance
Taxation of Life Insurance
Key Person Life Insurance
Buy-Sell Agreements

Who should attend?

CPAs, financial advisors, and insurance agents who are looking to improve their knowledge of how life insurance may be used to satisfy a variety of client needs.

Cost-volume-profit (CVP) and break-even analysis are two related ways to quickly answer some key business questions that include:

How much will our profits go up if sales volume goes up by 100 units?
What do my sales need to reach for my new company to become profitable?
How much will profits decrease if we don't sell the budgeted number of units?

CVP and break-even analysis are incredibly useful tools that finance professionals use throughout their careers. The formula is simple but powerful. The CVP formula is the basic equation that determines almost every line of the income statement. It's the formula that drives projections, forecasts, and budgets. The formula can be used for a wide range of analyses that answer key business questions.

The course begins with a quick overview of how CVP analysis is used to calculate profitability and how break-even analysis can help you find a target sales volume. We also explore some key questions it can answer. The rest of this course dives deeper into these concepts. We'll look at the CVP and break-even formulas in more detail and how to use them. I'll show how they can help inform business decisions.

This course provides the basics for those new to CVP while providing insights to those with experience with CVP and break-even analysis.
