FAQ
How does the Home Cooking Legacy Calculator work?
It calculates based on your parent's current age, their cooking stamina limit by health status, and how many home meals they provide per year. After age 70, cooking capacity is assumed to decline by 5% each year.
How is the cooking age limit determined?
It depends on health status. 'Very Healthy' is estimated at 80, 'Average' at 77, and 'Somewhat Weak' at 73 as the upper limit for self-cooking. These are statistical averages and individual results will vary.
How is the stamina decline modeled?
Before age 70, the annual meal count stays the same. After 70, it decreases by 5% each year. The total remaining meals is the sum of each year's projected count.
What is the dining equivalent based on?
₩15,000 per meal is used as the reference price, based on the average cost of a meal at a typical restaurant in Seoul. Of course, a parent's home cooking is priceless.
What's the difference between life expectancy and the cooking age limit?
Life expectancy is how long a person lives; the cooking age limit is how long they can physically stand and cook. Even healthy seniors may find it difficult to cook for extended periods past a certain age.
