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