They would like your help with financial planning, although they don't really know what specifically they need help with or how you can help them.

Explain a topic briefly to a client in a way that they can understand. Give the explanation about each of the 10 topics more detailed with the use of academic knowledges.

10 Topics:

Mr. and Mrs. Smith have come to you for financial planning help. They're not sure where to begin, but know that they have much to learn and would like to get their financial house in order. Here is the information they have given you during your first meeting with them:

1. they are both age 35 and work full-time; fortunately, Mrs. Smith's employer provides her with a company car which she drives for both work and personal use.

2. they have 3 children, ages 7, 5, 2; the older two are in school during the day, but the youngest goes to a child care center.

3. Mr. and Mrs. Smith paid $3,000 out of pocket for medical expenses earlier this year; these costs were not covered by their health and dental benefits.

4. they currently pay rent for the house that they are living in; they have been saving for a down payment on a home but aren't sure how much they need (the houses they are looking at are in the $500,000 range); they're a little bit worried about their lack of knowledge about how mortgages work.

5. they tell you that they never seem to have any extra money available for savings, but they really don't know where all their money goes every month.

6. although their children are quite young, they're wondering if they should start saving for their children's education and if so, what is the best way to do so.

7. they'd like to be able to save for retirement, so they figure they'll just keep trying to accumulate some extra money in their savings account whenever possible.

8. knowing that the house they eventually buy in their price range will likely need a lot of work done on it, they are anticipating renovating the kitchen first; they recognize that they would need to borrow money for this purpose, but aren't sure how best to go about doing that or if they would even qualify for a loan.

9. they pay someone to do their tax returns for them each year; they tell you that they don't understand anything about tax but would love to learn some basics.

10. Mr. Smith bought shares in Bank of Montreal many years ago. He is considering selling them because they've gone up in value a fair bit. However, they really enjoy the dividend income that they receive from the shares

Question 8,9 and 10 needed to be given a detailed explanation on the issues that is written.
