Risk Management and Insurance in Financial Planning CFP 104 Assignment 2 1 Client Profile Mr. & Mrs. Austin Mary and Steve Austin have been married for 5 years and have a 4-year-old daughter named Lindsay. The Austin's are starting to think more about their future with the aim of implementing their short-term and long-term lifestyle goals and financial plans. Mary and Steve are both aged 35. The Austin's are looking to purchase a house with an approximate purchase price of $1, 500,000.00 in the Oshawa area of Ontario. They are very excited as both Mary and Steve have never owned a home before. Steve Austin works as a manager for a robotics manufacturer and earns $100,000 gross annual income ($75,384 after tax). Mary works for a small local manufacturing business as a chief accountant earning $125,000 gross annual income ($89,322 after tax). Two years ago, Mary received an inheritance from her late father in the amount of $200 000. With this money they each opened a TSFA (Tax Free Savings Account) and invested $15 000 each. They also opened an RSP for the first time and contributed $10,000 each. The residual balance of the inheritance, $150,000 was deposited into a savings account at the bank because they plan to use the funds as a down payment. Steve and Mary have disability insurance and health care insurance through their employers but neither has a group life insurance plan. They know they both need to purchase life insurance, and have decided on Term Insurance, but they do not know how much or for how long to buy. They also need to understand the expected cost of the insurance policies. Assignment: Develop a Financial Plan strictly focused on the identified insurance needs for the Austin family.
