This assignment is worth 30 marks and represents 30% of the overall assessment.
You are required to use references in your assignment. A marking criteria is attached herein.
This is a research based assignment so it is STRONGLY recommended that you show evidence of research by use of material requiring referencing and depth of your discussion/argument. This means critical analysis that weighs up research material and an evaluation is made. For example in Question 2 there are advantages and disadvantages with having an SMSF. This provides an opportunity to evaluate these and come to a conclusion as to who is best suited to have an SMSF. I am happy to discuss this issue further individually if this is required.
Note: As this is a research exercise the ILAC structure is not appropriate. In this type of paper you should have an introduction, followed by the main body of discussion which addresses the research question, followed by a conclusion.
