She will earn a gross monthly salary of R18 000. She knows how important it is to save for her retirement and is surprised to learn that you should save at least 15% of your gross salary for approximately 40 years to provide for your retirement. 1.1 Refer to the table found on the Answer Sheet when answering this question. If Ms Hegter's salary increases by 6% each year for the next 3 years, calculate what her salary will be at the beginning of year 3 by completing the table on your Answer Sheet. (5) 1.2 Determine how much Ms Hegter would save if she were to save 15% of her salary for years 1, 2 and 3. (4) 1.3 The graph below shows the percentage of your salary that you should be saving for your retirement based on the age at which you begin saving for it. E.g. If you start saving for your retirement when you are 25 years old then you would need to save 15,4% of your monthly salary. PERCENTAGE AGE [Source: <www.marottaonmoney.com>] 1.3.1 Ms Hegter has been working for a while and is now earning R20 800 per month. She is saving the recommended amount of R3 640 per month for her retirement. Determine how old Ms Hegter was when she started saving. (4) 1.3.2 If Ms Hegter were to only start saving for her retirement when she was 30, determine the amount of money she would be saving that year if her annual salary was R290 000.

Show all your working. (3) 1.3.4 Ms Hegter notices a pattern by which the safe saving rate increases annually. (a) Describe or illustrate the pattern. (2) (b) Assuming the pattern remains the same, predict the safe saving rate for a 37-year-old person. (3) 1.4 Ms Hegter's 68-year-old father is retiring this year. He has an annuity of R2,25 million which has matured. As per the law, he may only take out one third of his annuity as a lump sum and must reinvest the rest. 1.4.1 Calculate the amount that Ms Hegter's father is able to "withdraw"/ take as a lump sum now. (3) 1.4.2 Unfortunately Ms Hegter's father must pay tax on the one third that he takes as a lump sum. The lump sum portion of the retirement amount is taxed using special tax rates, as indicated below: Retirement Fund Lump Sum Benefits 2017 tax year (1 March 2016 – 28 February 2017) Taxable income (R) Rate of tax (R) 0 – 500 000 0% 500 001 – 700 000 18% of taxable income above 500 000 700 001 – 1 050 000 36 000 + 27% of taxable income above 700 000 1 050 001 and above 130 500 + 36% of taxable income above 1 050 000 [Source: <http://www.sars.gov.za/>] Show that he has approximately 93% of his lump sum left once he has paid his taxes.

Mrs Naidoo kept a record of Rajesh's growth pattern over the first few years of his life. By making use of the percentile chart given on ANNEXURE A, and the information from Mrs Naidoo, complete the paragraph by finding the missing values. When Rajesh was born he weighed more than 25% of other boy babies, placing him on the ___(2.1.1)___ percentile. We were a little worried but when he weighed ___ (2.1.2)___ kg eight months later, placing him on the 50th percentile, we felt much better. Over the next ___(2.1.3)___ months he gained even more weight. He was then 24,5 lb (pounds) and 25% of boys his age weighed more than him. By the time Rajesh was one year and nine months old he weighed 31 lb. He had gained ___(2.1.4)___ kg in the last 9 months. Three months after his second birthday he was 15,1kg. He was then placed on the ___(2.1.5)___ percentile, which means he now weighed more than ___(2.1.6)___ percent of other boys his age. He was a very healthy toddler. (10) 2.2 Mr and Mrs Naidoo are researching the cost of education for Rajesh. They find some useful information on an Old Mutual Website, some of which is found on ANNEXURE B. Use ANNEXURE B to answer the questions that follow. 2.2.1 Show that the projected percentage increase in the cost of Private High Schools from 2016 to 2021 is approximately 54%. (4) 2.2.2 The projected percentage increase for Private High Schools from 2029 to 2034 is also 54%. Explain why the projected percentage increase is not the same from 2021 to 2029. (2) 2.2.3 Mr and Mrs Naidoo know that costs do not remain the same every year but are keen to get an estimate of what their son's education might cost them. Rajesh started Grade 1 in 2016. He currently goes to a Public School and will remain there until the end of his Grade 7 year. His parents would like to send him to a Private High School (from Grade 8– Grade 12) and are hoping he studies further at a University. Assume he passes every grade and studies for 3 years at University. Calculate the estimated cost that Rajesh's parents can expect to pay for his education using the projected figures given in the graph. (6) IEB Copyright © 2017

Helena's pool is rectangular in shape with the depth increasing uniformly from 0,6 to 1,2 m. Jay-Jay's pool is cylindrical in shape with a diameter of 4,8 m. Length Diameter Width Depth 1 Section A Depth 2 Section B Depth Helena’s Pool Jay-Jay’s Pool Length: 7 m Width: 4,8 m Diameter: 4,8 m Depth 1: 0,6 m Depth: ? Depth 2: 1,2 m 1 m3 = 1 000 litres Some formulas you may find useful: Area of a Rectangle = length × width Area of a Triangle = ½ × base × height (depth) Area of a Circle = π × radius2 (let π = 3,14) Volume = area of base × height (depth) Circumference = π × diameter (let π = 3,14) 3.1 Helena calculates that her pool can hold over 30 000 litres of water. If the volume of water for part/section A of her pool is 20 160 ℓ, determine whether Helena is correct. (8) 3.2 If Jay-Jay's pool also holds 30 000 litres of water, then calculate, rounded to one decimal place, the depth of his pool. (7) 3.3 Jay-Jay and Helena both need to replace the tubing that runs around the top edge of their pools. They know they can get a better deal if they buy in bulk so they combine the length of tubing they each need and then add an extra 10% to be safe. Show, by means of calculations, that together they will need more than 40 m of tubing. (6) IEB Copyright © 2017

They investigate the cost of HTH (a chemical pool cleaner). They find the following information on www.google.com: HTH Chlorine Granular 10 kg Buy Bulk & Save Bulk Be the first to review this product R325.00 Availability: In stock Qty: Wish list Compare If Jay-Jay used the product shown above, determine how much it would cost him to maintain his 30 000 litre pool for a 31-day month. The daily recommendation is 40 g of HTH granules per 10 000 litres. (6) 3.5 Helena's neighbour, Siyethaba, complains that her pool water is too cold to swim in. The temperature of Siyethaba's pool water is currently 19 °C and she says she will only swim if the temperature of the pool water is 25 °C. Calculate what the temperature change would be in °F. (5) °C to °F Multiply by 9, then divide by 5, then add 32 [32] IEB Copyright © 2017 PLEASE TURN OVER
