AUTUMN BLAKE Financial Planning Case PERSONAL INFORMATION AND BACKGROUND After 12 years of marriage, Autumn's husband Chase suddenly left her for another woman at the end of last year. Autumn was very surprised when Chase came home one night and told her after their kids, Jennifer and Benjamin, were in bed. Chase packed a couple suitcases that night and moved out of the home without saying goodbye to the kids. Autumn sought professional help for minor depression after Chase left her. Her therapist got Autumn to join a local running club to train for an upcoming 10k race as a way to help release some stress in her life. Autumn has also joined a network of single mothers so that she can meet other women who are struggling with similar issues. Autumn is extremely close with her parents, Patrick and Sophia, as they live about 15 minutes away. Her parents are both retired and like to spoil their grandkids. Patrick and Sophia have helped out with the kids two days a week for the last three years. Now that Chase is gone, they try to help out four days a week. Patrick and Sophia have enough assets to live comfortably in retirement. Autumn anticipates she will inherit around $1.5 million when her parents pass away as she is an only child. Autumn's parents are currently in their mid-70s. Autumn expects she and her parents will all live to be 85 years old. GOALS Autumn has come to you, the CFP practitioner to assist her in the following: 1. To establish an estate plan to provide for Jennifer and Benjamin while minimizing any estate taxes. 2. To determine what amount she needs to set aside to fund the children's education. 3. To determine the most tax efficient way to save for college for the children. 4. To determine what amount she needs to save for her retirement. 5. To determine if she needs to get a job while the kids are in school. 6. To obtain her own health insurance policy. 7. To review the insurance currently in place and make any recommendations to reduce the risk exposures. 8. To revise her portfolio allocations to minimize her risk now that she is a single parent. 9. To determine if she needs to make estimated tax payments to the IRS. 10. To determine the best way to finance a $10,000 purchase of new furniture. CHASE Chase is a heart surgeon at the local hospital. He is paid $350,000 a year. The hospital currently provides health, dental and vision insurance for the entire family. The hospital also pays the premium for Chase on $750,000 of group term life insurance. Chase has a disability policy that will pay $200,000 a year in the event of a disability. Chase called your office late last week asking to set up an appointment with you. However, you have not yet returned his call. FINANCIAL PLANNING INFORMATION Chase and Autumn engaged you at the beginning of last year to create a financial plan for them. You recommended several items to them including changing their investment allocation, purchasing additional life insurance, purchasing an umbrella policy, and contributing to a 529 plan for each child. All of the meetings went well until it was time to implement the plan. Chase was unable to attend any of the implementation meetings. As a result, the plan was never implemented and the engagement ended. INCOME TAX INFORMATION Autumn's main source of income will be the alimony and child support from Chase. She will only have around $5,000 of interest, dividends and capital gains on the brokerage account. Autumn anticipates her AGI will be $125,000 annually now that the divorce was finalized last week.

Chase called Autumn yesterday to ask for the ring back. Autumn has not yet returned Chase's call. ESTATE PLANNING INFORMATION Chase and Autumn last updated their wills five years ago. They have not yet executed new documents. Their current wills include a bypass trust and a QTIP trust with reduce to zero provisions.
