Loss Probability Simulator

This educational loss probability simulator helps you estimate the chance of at least one loss event across repeated attempts using simple probability assumptions. It uses the registry inputs for loss event probability, number of attempts, loss amount per event so you can compare scenarios without rebuilding a spreadsheet. Use it when you want the calculator plus a plain-English explanation of inputs, assumptions, and how to interpret the result.

Learn how to use this loss probability simulator to estimate the chance of at least one loss event across repeated attempts using simple probability assumptions.

Calculate your estimate

Adjust one assumption at a time. The result updates automatically so you can compare changes calmly.

Result

65.13% chance of at least one loss event

$500 expected loss exposure across attempts.

Treat this as a planning estimate. Change one input to see which assumption matters most.
