How much will I save adding R20 in the attic? About..

I'm trying to figure out how much money I could save per year upgrading my attic insulation from R30 to R50 to justify the cost. Iv tried to use this calculator.. http://www.ornl.gov/~roofs/Zip/ZipHome.html

But Im having a hard time since my energy provider can only tell me a price of .65536 per therm and .09022 per kW.

My attic area is 1350 square feet. 90% NG furnace and 9 seer AC Split level 1971 home with 18448 cubic feet of interior space. Original double pane double hung windows.

Im not looking for a definitive dollar amount.. Just a estimate.

Thanks
