CASE STUDY - 55 marks Due – Sun 1 Nov, 11.59pm Marina, a widow was born 1 Aug 1955 and is planning on retirement in early 2023 when she thinks she will be eligible for the Aged Pension. She has one daughter aged 35 who is not dependent on her. She would like to know if she will in fact be eligible for this pension and if so, roughly how much she would receive based on her current assets. Marina has an inherited health issue and feels she is unlikely to live beyond her late 70’s. While she has Private Health Insurance now, she is not sure whether it is worth keeping. She has about $250,000 in her superannuation fund and is thinking she would like to increase the amount in superannuation so that she could draw down a superannuation pension to top up any Aged Pension she is eligible for when she retires. While her employer is making Superannuation Guarantee contributions to her superannuation, Marina has been thinking of salary sacrificing up to the maximum amount or putting some money from her bank account into super and has come to you for advice on this and her upcoming retirement plans – she is happy to work on today’s figures knowing they will change. She would also like to discuss any strategies she can use to maximise her Aged Pension entitlement while ensuring she lives comfortably and/or any investment strategies to give her a better retirement. Marina recently signed a new employment contract that will pay her $160,000 per annum (p.a.) (excluding superannuation) for the next few years, she receives $650 p.a. from interest income from her savings and also receives $1,000 unfranked income p.a. from the investments in her managed fund (non-super). She has personal tax deductions of approximately $500 p.a., living expenses of approximately $60,000 p.a. and a credit card debt of $12,000 from an overseas trip she undertook. She anticipates she will be able to comfortably live on around $30,000 per annum once she retires. Assessment 3 Task Outline: ACBUS107A – Financial Planning Fundamentals © TAFENSW– Higher Education Sem 2, 2020 Page | 5 Marina has the following assets & liabilities: Principal residence (no mortgage) $700,000 Home contents (market value) $10,000 Superannuation balance $250,000 Car (purchase price 2020) $20,000 Credit Card ($12,000) Managed Fund – (assume 2% income unfranked) $50,000 Term Deposit (assume 1% income) $50,000 Savings Account (assume 1% income) $15,000 Marina considers herself to be a Balanced/Growth Investor, having previously invested in share funds for a long time and taken interest in her superannuation investments, but would like to keep approximately $50,000 in cash type investments as a backup/emergency fund. Question 1 (8 marks) In relation to the details provided above, there are several factors that you, as a financial adviser, need to ascertain in further detail in order to provide recommendations to Marina. Identify at least 4 of these factors and for

Answer to Question 3 -
As per the latest guidelines from 01st January,2020 the employer is required to pay Super guarantee to the extent of 9.5% of the earnings of the ordinary time. Super guarantee contributions are calculated on ordinary time earnings and OTE are the Employee salary and wages, allowances and do not apply to overtime wages or to casual employee. So, in this case Superannuation Guarantee shall be calculated on Salary of $1,60,000 at the rate of 9.5% which comes to $15,200.
The maximum amount of salary sacrifice by employee shall not exceed the amount of concessional contribution contributed by employee. The cap of concessional contribution shall not include the amount contributed by employer’s other contributions or compulsory employer other contributions. The maximum amount of concessional contribution allowable or that can be paid shall not be more than $25,000 per annum. The contribution of superannuation shall be counted as paid in the year of receipt of super fund towards super contribution. The maximum eligible salary sacrifice assuming her total concessional contribution is $10,000 will be $15,000
