The Insurance needs using DINK method is $94,025

Explanation:

In order to calculate the total insurance needs using the DINK method, we would have to use the following formula:

Insurance needs using DINK method = Funeral expense + 0.5 × Mortgage + 0.5 × Car loan + 0.5 × Personal debt  + 0.5 × credit card loans

= $8,000 + 0.5 ×$150,000 + 0.5 ×$11,600 + 0.5× $7,200   + 0.5 × $3,250

= $8,000+$75,000+$5,800+$3,600+$1625

=$94,025

Hence, the Insurance needs using DINK method is $94,025
