ASSIGNMENT 1 of 5
- LOAN SUBMISSION [20 Marks]
Overview The purpose of this task is to allow you to demonstrate that you can complete the major
steps required in broking or writing a moderately complex loan for a customer – through
identification, development and implementation of loan options while assessing and
managing risks. The samples provided online in Appendix a) and b) will prove helpful.
Remember that what you prepare would, in the real world, need to be presented to the
client orally and thus must be understood by them.
INSTRUCTIONS Read the scenario provided and using the information and data supplied, prepare a formal
loan submission for a lender using the following headings. Use subheadings where
appropriate to ensure your submission will be easily read and understood by the lender.
The client file should contain the standard client information and data that would be
included in a typical submission for a loan of this complexity. Your lender submission
should include as a minimum the following headings:
1. Borrower’s Details
2. Background
3. Loan Purpose
4. Facility Details
5. Funds Position
6. Servicing Capacity
7. Security
8. Risk Assessment and Management (according to lender policy, guidelines and
relevant legislation). Consideration must be given to any environmental, heritage
or native title implications
9. Recommendations
10. List of Attachments*
* Attachments which would normally be included in a submission to a lender need only be listed for
the purpose of this assignment. You will not need to create “dummy” supporting documents.
SCENARIO Andrew Bisset has been a real estate agent for over 20 years and jointly with his wife Jane
own 6 shops at 55 Park Road, Belmont. Mr and Mrs Bisset own the shopping centre under
the Bisset Family Trust. The property was valued 2 years ago at $1,450,000 and has a
current ABZ Bank Mortgage of $625,000.
Five of the shops are rented out for $96,000. The sixth shop is occupied by Mr Bisset’s real
estate business, Bisset’s Real Estate Pty Ltd, which pays annual rental of $42,000 to the
family trust. For tax purposes Bisset’s Real Estate pays rent which is $20,000 in excess of
the fair market rental value of the shop it occupies.
Bisset’s Real Estate Pty Ltd was formed at the beginning of the last financial year to take
over the real estate agency business, which was previously conducted by a partnership
between Mr Bisset and Joseph Hooper. Bisset’s Real Estate Pty Ltd took over the business
when Mr Hooper retired; Andrew Bisset is the sole director of Bisset’s Real Estate Pty Ltd.
Mr and Mrs Bisset now wish to acquire 3,000m2 of land near their existing shopping centre
and hold it for 1 – 2 years pending rezoning. The purchase price is $600,000. The land was
previously used as a State Government Health and Dental Centre, but the building was
demolished when it became obsolete. The land is currently zoned ‘Special Purpose’, but
the local council earmarked the land for future ‘Commercial’ use in it recently released
Town Planning Scheme. The land is located at 423 Belmont Road, Belmont and has a two
street frontage with considerable passing traffic.
The Bissets have contracted to purchase the property in their capacity as trustees of their
family trust and settlement is due with 60 days. They wish to raise 100% of the purchase
price plus $25,000 for stamp duty, financing and conveyancing costs. They are willing to
offer both the land and their existing shopping centre as security for the proposed loan.
They will contribute a further $20,000 over the next 1-2 years to cover the costs associated
with re-zoning of the property and obtaining approval to develop another shopping centre.
ABZ Bank policy does not allow lending against land zoned ‘Special Purpose’ and cannot
assist with the purchase. The Bissets have appointed you to approach an alternative lender
to refinance their ABZ Bank Loan and obtain the additional funds required.
Married with three adult children (one working in the real estate business)
Work History Andrew has been a real estate agent for 22 years in the Brisbane South East area, he
specialises in commercial and industrial property (rent roll comprises 75% commercial and
industrial properties). His gross salary last financial year was $78,000. In the previous
financial year he drew $55,000 from the partnership with Joseph Hooper.

10. List of Attachments*
* Attachments which would normally be included in a submission to a lender need only be listed for
the purpose of this assignment. You will not need to create “dummy” supporting documents.
EVIDENCE In order to be deemed competent, you will need to evidence the ability to:
REQUIREMENTS • Develop detailed broking options designed to maximise the client’s
outcomes and reach client objectives which incorporate elements from
research and which address complex needs and issues
• Identify and describe key assumptions upon which the plan is based
• Provide a detailed analysis of research strategies and findings
• Test and make appropriate checks on a proposed plan for its integrity and
compliance
• Assess the impacts of taxation, social security, economic and other
government policies on client investment and financial requirements
• Interpret and comply with industry regulations and codes of practice
• Identify the roles of associated financial advisers and work effectively with
them
• Assess broking options, financial markets and investment characteristics
• Use appropriate sales and marketing methodologies and provide
justification and research evidence
• Gain client feedback on and/or agreement to the plan
• Prepare materials and personnel to effectively implement complex loan
structures
• Establish appropriate audit trails and effectively document records and data.
They are joint company owners Ray Henley and Steve Manning and they run a
successful and growing transport company. They have a diverse client base spread
over many industry sectors which is a conscious management strategy to ensure
that they do not have significant business risk to a specific market segment or client.
All contracts are written with 30 day payment terms. Background industry checks as
well as credit history checks are completed on all new business prospects to ensure
that there are no adverse issues that may impact on future trading arrangements.
Whilst they have only been trading for 34 months they have a solid business plan
with actual results to date exceeding projected sales and profit estimates included in
their plan.
The business was established with unsecured (apart from Personal Guarantees) Seed
Capital of $500k from a private investor based on a guaranteed return of $45k pa,
and an overall term of 5 years which also requires a principal reduction of $100k pa.
The loan can be repaid at any time without penalty.
As part of this expansion the company has leased a second depot at a cost of
$6,000pm and will also retain the existing depot.
They currently have 5 employees and where needed are using sub-contract
operators to fill shortfall in their delivery capacity. Purchase of new additional trucks
and trailers will provide additional capacity and flexibility and reduce reliance on
sub-contractors who can be unreliable.
Whilst a limit is being sought, purchases will only proceed where additional work has
been contracted or older equipment is being replaced. Applicants are happy to
provide half yearly management accounts as an approval covenant to give a lender
comfort that projected sales and profits are in line with budgets.
Applicants are keen to reduce debt as quickly as possible and have therefore
decided to finance all new equipment over a 48 month term, without a
balloon/residual and will commit a refund of GST Input Credits as additional
repayments built into the contracted loan structure.
Initial Fact Find Ray and Steve have both been in the transport industry for many years each being
Financial Controllers for major transport companies. Ray has an MBA and Steve a
marketing degree. These combined skills complement each other and assist in the
effective management of the business. Ray is married and has no dependants. His
wife is a school teacher and she will be retiring at the end of the year.
Steve is single and is presently completing a HR degree as they feel that as the
business grows these skills will be required.
Steve and Ray have provided the last two year’s financial accounts for the trading
business, as well as interim accounts for the current financial year.
(Note: You need to calculate the required servicing for the new debt and surplus
required for lender comfort. Assume an interest rate of 10% for the proposed debt)
Financial accounts
Applicant Ray Henley net income $100,000 (paid as fully franked dividend), owner
Information occupied property $850,000 with debt of $250,000 (assume 7.2% P&I), credit
card limit $25,000 (with debt of $15,000, assume at 3.8%), contents $100,000,
superannuation $550,000, motor vehicle $40,000 with nil debt.
Steve Manning - net income $100,000 (paid as Fully Franked Dividend), owner
occupied property $500,000 with debt of $350,000 (assume 7.2% P&I), credit
card limit $10,000 (with debt of $3,000, assume at 3.8%), contents $85,000,
superannuation $150,000, motor vehicle $25,000 with debt of $15,000 (assume
five year debt at 9%).
Cash in business account $25,000.
Key Balance
Cash $25,000
Sheet Items
Debtors $220,000
Creditors $100,000
Notes:
They currently meet all creditor payments at 30-day terms.
Debtor collection has been solid with active management of debtors
and pre-contract investigation of new clients.
They have just signed a delivery contract with Organic Flower Growers
who supply to Coles Supermarkets state-wide. To accommodate this
work their initial purchase will be a refrigerated Pantec truck at a cost
of $145,000. Projected net profit from this contract is $60k pa.
TIP
The servicing calculations need to be conducted manually showing all workings. Net profit minus
tax. Show addbacks, then calculate outgoings including the new facilities, and lastly using the
correct formula provided in the course material calculate the DSCR.
TIPS
1. In this Assignment 2, your submission can be either:
a) Consolidation of all income and debt in assessing servicing capacity OR
b) Separate residential and commercial calculations.
2. Presentation – Although in real life you may well present the client part of this assignment
in person to the client/verbally, for the purposes of this assignment please present your
submission in a written report format. Remember to include Part A, the list of questions
that you would need to ask your clients about the proposed transaction, that is, prepare
your needs analysis/Fact Find. Then make use of Appendix a) and b) for guidance on layout.
Note that Appendix b) has key content points on page 3.
3. Risk management is the forecasting and evaluation of financial risks together with the
identification of procedures to avoid or minimize their impact. If you take a look at Ray and
Steve's requirements and the "fact find" area in the scenario, this will assist you in
providing possible risks and the relevant information to mitigate these risks, for example
strong servicing, short loan term with no balloon, etc.
4. Funds Position – As explained in Appendix b), the Funds Position should include a
calculation of required funds including purchase price and costs to ensure that borrowings
and equity are sufficient to complete the transaction. The clients are potentially buying
equipment costing $500,000 and it would be reasonable to say 100% borrowing requested.
Brokerage is payable by the lender and included in the loan repayments to them so there is
no additional cost in relation to brokerage.
5. Loan Repayments – If the loan is $500,000 and you calculate the P&I repayment amount of
$21.25 (showing under the 5 Years column in the Monthly Repayment Calculator table in
Appendix m), you would get a monthly repayment figure of $10,625 per month. However
the scenario in this Assignment 2 is based around a 4 year term not a 5 year term so your
calculation of the repayment amount would be a higher figure per month. If preferred, you
may also, or instead, source and utilise an online Chattel Mortgage repayment calculator.
6. Servicing Capacity – You can assume that the lender will allow you to use three addbacks:
Depreciation, Interest and the full amount of Directors’ superannuation (because they are
paying themselves in the form of fully franked dividends, not salary). Remember also to
use the rate of 27.5% when you work out the taxation on income. So simplistically you will
have income less tax, then add back the addbacks, take away their commitments and you’ll
be left with the servicing surplus and the DSCR.
7. Security – Security in the way of a mortgage over the homes of the Directors could be taken
but it is probably unnecessary in this case. The more likely security would comprise of the
Goods (trucks and trailer), the Directors' Guarantees and the GSA from Henman Transport
Pty Ltd.
ASSIGNMENT 3
ASSIGNMENT 3 of 5
- THEORY ASSESSMENT [30 Marks]
– 5 marks for each question
When responding to the following questions you are to describe the processes and

$55,000 and is considering a 5 year Chattel Mortgage (CM), with an interest rate of 9%
and monthly repayments of $1,133.21. He has opted not to provide a deposit and is
not seeking any balloon at the end of the loan term. As no deposit is to be applied,
repayments will be monthly in advance.
