Income Analysis - Joint Life - Add Goal Details

This article is a continuation of Income Analysis - Creating Research

Complete the Add Goal Details screen. 

In this example, we have a joint client. The details below will be used throughout the research to provide a picture of how long the fund will last against a given income requirement.

Cashflow Start Age – This information can be either an age or a date that you would like the drawdown scenario to start.

Note - When doing joint research, Cashflow Age will be used for Drawdown Start Age & Retirement Start Age of Client 1 automatically,  allowing you to select a different Age/Date for client 2. 

Drawdown Start Age -  Age/Date the client goes into Drawdown. This will default to the Cashflow start age for Client 1. If doing joint research, you can set an age/date they go into drawdown.

Retirement Start Age - Age/Date the client starts Retirement. This field is not used in calculations, but will appear on the report. 

Forecast Life Expectancy – This figure is pre calculated utilising ONS statistics, it is determined from the clients DOB and gender. If required this figure can be overridden.

Scottish Tax Rules – This option allows you to toggle whether the system uses Scottish Tax rules or not. This determines which tax bandings are applied within the calculations.

Tax Rate - Capture the client's Current Tax Rate and At Retirement Tax Rate
