Ora (43) and wants to know about saving for her superannuation when she plans to retire at age 60. At the moment, Ora is single but has some prospects. She currently earns about $110,000 per annum, and her employer will let her salary sacrifice to superannuation. You expect that she could earn a net CPI-adjusted rate of 3% in the long term on any investments based on your assessment of her needs and risk profile. Required a) Assuming Ora wants 75% of her pre-retirement salary as annual income, estimate Ora’s income at age 60. b) Calculate how much Ora needs to have saved by the time she is 60 to have her pre-retirement salary as annual income during retirement. Assume her adjusted life expectancy is 32 years at the age of 60. c) Ora would like to make additional superannuation contributions up to the concessional contribution cap of $25,000. Assuming that Ora's employer is required to contribute $10,450 to her super, show the tax effectiveness of salary sacrificing to make concessional contributions to super.
