The purpose of this guide is to specify the core requirements for completing a serviceability worksheet. The worksheet measures the applicant’s ability to service new and existing debt based on their income and expenses.

A Serviceability Worksheet is required for CRS, Top Ups, and where required Loan Variation requests.

INTRODUCTION

SERVICEABILITY WORKSHEET

Lenders must always avoid the following items when completing a serviceability worksheet:• Overstating income; (e.g. by using unacceptable or non-validated income)

• Neglecting liabilities

• Misrepresentation of data

• Using out-dated versions of the serviceability worksheet.

Before starting, check that you have, for each borrower:• Validated income and expenses as per credit policies, and

• Located and investigated liabilities.

Reliance on any form of income outside existing policy requires a policy exception request and is always subject to Credit Risk Assessment review and approval.

Upon completion of the serviceability worksheet, a copy must be saved to the branches ‘U’ Drive, and where applicable, attached to the CRS application.

There are five (5) worksheets within the serviceability worksheet for Lenders to use. An explanation of each worksheet is provided in the worksheet introduction.

• Self Employed

• Personal & Rental Income

• Debt Servicing

• Negative Gearing Calculator

• Top Up Calculator

Tip: If required, there are ‘add or remove’ buttons located in various sections of the serviceability worksheet.

IMPORTANT! BEFORE YOU START

Once all income and expenses have been validated and all liabilities are confirmed, prepare a serviceability worksheet.

The serviceability worksheet is located on mySource. Search using the Policies & Forms, Forms and Templates, Lending - Application to Approval menu.

When you open the worksheet, a security warning may appear below the toolbars. Click on ‘Enable Editing’ and or ‘Enable Content’ to allow the macros to run, or the worksheet will not calculate properly.

VALIDATION COMPLETED: WHAT’S NEXT?

THE SERVICEABILITY WORKSHEET 1 – SELF EMPLOYED/COMPANY INCOME

This worksheet is only used if the applicants are self-employed individuals, company, partnership, or trust. If the applicants are PAYG taxpayers then proceed to the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet.

Information to complete this part of the serviceability worksheet is obtained from the accountant prepared Profit and Loss statements (P&L) and/or tax returns. If there are differences between the two, always use the tax returns. Input the figures for the current financial year and previous year/s.

Always start at the top of the Self Employed worksheet. If financial data is input before selecting the entity type, the worksheet will not calculate income in the Personal & Rental Income worksheet.

APPLICATION NUMBER AND DATE

Input the details at the top of the worksheet. These details will automatically populate into other worksheets excluding the Top Up Calculator. The date will format to Date/Month/Year.

For example: Input date as 11/8/14 – it will display as 11 Aug 2014.

Hint: The application number is the CRS multi product number.

Tip: To add or remove additional self-employed tables, use the ‘Add’ and ‘Remove table’ buttons.

IS THIS STAND-ALONE COMMERCIAL LENDING

Select “yes” if the application is stand-alone commercial lending with no retail facilities.

TRADING NAME

Input the full and correct legal entity name. If the entity trades as a different name, include the trading name.

For example:• ABC Pty Ltd t/as ABC Educational tools.

If the applicant operates through a trust structure, input the name in the format of ‘Trustee ATF the Trust t/as Trading Name.

• ABC Pty Ltd ATF the John and Mary Smith Family Trust t/as ABC Educational Tools.

ENTITY TYPE

Select from the drop down options the correct entity type for the applicant. If the entity type is not selected, figures will not calculate correctly.

Note: If Sole Trader is selected, the worksheet will automatically adjust the Salaries/Distribution field to reflect a Sole Trader.

SALES/INCOME, COST OF GOODS SOLD, & OTHER INCOME

This information is obtained from the applicants P&L statements or tax returns. Where there is no value for the Sales/Income field input “0” to enable the worksheet to calculate correctly.

EXPENSESInput the figures as shown on the P&L statements or the tax returns for the current financial year, and previous year/s (where the figures are inconsistent the tax returns should be used).

BOQ.0001.0045.0013

Page 6: BOQ SERVICEABILITY WORKSHEET GUIDE

4

Select from the drop down options the correct description of the income/distribution.

NON-RECURRING INCOMECompanies only.

For example: Income from a capital gain, or sale of an asset.

COMPANY DIVIDENDS DISTRIBUTION

If the company pays dividends, and the dividend has been paid; deduct these payments here as the dividends will be added back under the individual’s income on the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet.

SOLE TRADER PROCEEDSTRUST DISTRIBUTION

PARTNERSHIP DISTRIBUTION

When selecting these types, input the corresponding value from the above NPBT (Net Profit Before Tax) cells to result in the NPAT (Net Profit After Tax) figure being $0.

Distributions from this source should be accounted for under Salaries/ Distributions in the Director’s Income fields.

Tip: DO NOT input non-applicant director’s salaries/profits here.

OTHERIf ‘Other’ is selected, ensure the income/distribution is explained in the loan remarks.

COMPANY TAX @ 30%If the applicant is a company then you must manually calculate and input the company tax payable in this field. Company tax is calculated at 30% of the NPBT.

ADD BACKS

DEPRECIATIONDepreciation represents the systematic allocation of the original cost of a fixed asset over its useful life. As depreciation is a book entry only (i.e. a non-cash expense) the depreciation figure can be added back to the net profit for serviceability purposes.

INTEREST PAID

If the company pays dividends, and the dividend has been paid; deduct these payments here as the dividends will be added back under the individual’s income on the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet.

Note: To add back interest for a debt that has since been fully repaid, written confirmation from the financier or accountant must be held confirming debt is fully repaid or limit closed.

LEASING CHARGESThe finance lease expense can be added back provided that the related lease commitment is included on the ‘Debt Servicing’ worksheet.

SALARIES & DISTRIBUTIONS

SELF-EMPLOYED SALARIES/DISTRIBUTIONS

If the applicant is a self-employed individual or partnership, generally the applicant will take any profit earned by the business as their personal income. In most cases, the figure from the personal tax returns would be entered.

Select from the drop down options the correct description for each applicant.

Director: A person who is a director of a company;

Sole Trader: A person who trades as a Sole Trader;

Beneficiary: A beneficiary of a trust;

Partner: A person owning a share of a partnership.

The worksheet will automatically calculate the tax payable and populate the tax figure into the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet once the salary/distribution fields have been entered.

Where there are multiple self-employed entities, ensure that the applicant number remains consistent throughout all tables to ensure correct calculation of personal income tax in the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet.

Important Note: Only input director’s salaries, trustee, partners, or trust beneficiaries’ income here; where the individual is a loan applicant. If the individual is not an applicant the income cannot be used.

% SHARE OF ENTITY

Input the % share of entity the applicant has. No input is required for discretionary trust. If the applicant is a sole trader the share will default to 100%.

Note: Do not include income twice, by inputting the director/partners income in the self-employed worksheet, and then adding it again as salary in the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet. If 2 years of director’s salaries are being input, the 3rd year should be left blank i.e. do not input “0”.

APPLICANT NO

Select from the drop down options the corresponding applicant number.

It is essential that the applicant number is used; this allows the worksheet to correctly calculate income in the Personal & Rental Income worksheet.

The options available defaults to four (4) applicants. To add additional applicants in the ‘Self Employed’ worksheet go to the ‘Personal & Rental Income’ worksheet and click on the ‘Add Applicant’ buttons located at the top.

BOQ.0001.0045.0015

DIRECTOR’S SUPERANNUATION (SUPER)

Where wages or salaries are paid super payments are a mandatory legislative requirement and currently set at 9.5% of wages. If directors are paid a higher super amount than required by legislation the excess between the current legislative requirement and the amount paid can be added back subject to validation.

Tip: The tax return of the company or the Profit & Loss statement will confirm additional super contributions made.

OTHER ADD BACKS

Refer to the applicable credit policies for policy requirements relating to add backs. If other add backs are to be considered, the Lender must possess a thorough understanding of the applicants business and financial statements. This would be obtained from analysing the P&L statements, tax returns, and discussions with the applicants and/or their accountant.

EXTRAORDINARY /ONE OFF EXPENSES

An abnormal/unusual expense incurred by the business, although not normally associated with the day to day business operations.

Note: To use add backs outside existing policy requires a policy exception request, and is always subject to Credit Risk Assessment review and approval.

THE FOLLOWING FIELDS WILL AUTOMATICALLY POPULATE

Adjusted Profitability: This figure is automatically calculated as the average adjusted profitability figure from the data entered or the latest year, whichever is the lowest figure. It is mandatory that two (2) year’s tax returns are held to complete this.

EBIT – Earnings before Interest and Tax: This is calculated from the NPBT figure, plus the Interest Expense and/or Leasing Charges figure.

Interest and Leasing Expense: This is the total of the figures entered in the Interest and Leasing expense fields.

Interest cover ratio: This is calculated as a percentage (%) of the EBIT divided (/) by the Interest and Leasing Expenses figure. This ratio indicates the entity’s ability to meet interest payments on outstanding debt.

Note: If there is no data entered in the ‘Interest or Leasing Charges’ fields under add backs, the interest cover ratio percentage will not calculate.

THE SERVICEABILITY WORKSHEET 2 – PERSONAL & RENTAL INCOME

This worksheet is used for Personal and Rental Income, and the calculation of living expenses. Complete this worksheet where the applicants are PAYG taxpayers.

For PAYG and where the Self Employed worksheet has been used, Lenders need to complete the following fields in this worksheet in order to calculate the living expenses for individual applicants and guarantors:

• Customer Name;

• Customers Postcode;

• Relationship Status;

• No. of Dependants; and

• Any other additional income fields (such as non-taxable or rental income) where applicable.

Income sourced from Rental Property investments is also included in this worksheet.

Note: If rental income is already included in self-employed figures, it should not be duplicated here.

Information to complete this part of the Serviceability Worksheet is obtained from the applicant’s payslip, account statements, or Tax Assessment Notice (TAN). Refer to the relevant credit policy for requirements associated with income and validation.

For PAYG income earners where validation is from payslips, perform a test to see whether a surplus servicing position is evident on the base pay alone. If a surplus is shown, use the base pay only as this eliminates validation of additional PAYG income, such as overtime.

BOQ uses the HEM (Household Expenditure Measure) as a base line to calculate living expenses for applicants in each household. The HEM amount is based on:

• Household type -single/couple & number of dependants;

• Geographical location (postcode); and

• Household income.

The serviceability worksheet will apply the higher of the customer declared living expenses or HEM. Lenders must utilise the applicant’s regular living expenses disclosed in the Lending Application form for the completion of the serviceability worksheet.

BOQ.0001.0045.0017

Page 10: BOQ SERVICEABILITY WORKSHEET GUIDE

Where there are two applicants who live in separate households, each applicant and household must be separated. For example:

• Mr Smith and Mr Brown are both borrowers.

• Mr Smith lives in a separate household to Mr Brown and vice versa.

• Mr Smith is applicant 1, and is Household 1.

• Mr Brown is applicant 2 and is Household 2.

1. Input Mr Smith’s details as applicant 1, and click in the Customer Name cell for applicant 2, then

2. To the right of the worksheet click on the Remove Selected Applicant button. This will remove applicant 2 from Household 1, then

3. Input Mr Brown details as applicant 2 in Household 2.

For other joint applicants (e.g. siblings or friends) these should be treated as separate households even where they are living in the same household.

When all the required data has been entered, the worksheet will calculate the living expenses for each applicant and household.

Where applicable, once the serviceability worksheet is fully completed with all income, liabilities, expenses and any negative gearing benefit the figures calculated in the Gross Allowable Income Available to Service Debt, and the Net Monthly Surplus cells must be input into CRS via the ‘Remarks’ tab, before credit scoring.

Refer to the summary section for instructions.

SALARY SACRIFICE

Some employers provide employees with salary sacrifice options.

For serviceability purposes, only the following salary sacrifice options are acceptable:• A voluntary superannuation deduction can be utilised as gross income provided; it is

clearly identified as salary sacrifice on the payslip and is additional to the employer’s contribution.

For a novated lease (or other such salary sacrifice loan repayments),

1. The pre-tax payment should be annualised and this amount is to be included as

(i) Non-Taxable income; and

Tip: Do not include dividend income twice. For example: where the dividend paid is from another entity within the borrower group, and that dividend payment is also included in the shareholder’s personal income, the dividend payment must be deducted from the business entity.

The following fields will automatically populate from either the data entered in the ‘Self-Employed’ Worksheet or from the data in the sections listed above.

Note: For Self Employed individuals, the Director’s Salaries (Gross) figure is automatically calculated on the lower of the average of the Director’s Salaries figures as entered into the ‘Self Employed’ worksheet or the latest year, whichever is the lowest figure. Income tax is then calculated on this figure.

Directors Salaries (Gross) -$ -$ Partnership Distributions (Gross)/Sole Trader Income (Gross) -$ -$ Trust Distributions (Gross) -$ -$ Gross Taxable Income (excludes add backs & Non-taxable income) -$ -$ Tax Paid on Gross Taxable Income (including Medicare levy) -$ -$ Negative Gearing Benefit Figure (add back) -$ -$ Net Household Income per Applicant (includes non-taxable income) -$ -$ Net Household Income Per Household (includes non-taxable income) -$

THE SERVICEABILITY WORKSHEET 3 – DEBT SERVICING

All liabilities either with BOQ or other external lending institutions, and personal liabilities must be included. For example:

• Business loans;

• Overdrafts; (Business or Residential)

• Leasing/Hire Purchase Facilities;

• All Retail Loans; (Home Loans, Line of Credits, Personal Loans, Credit Cards and Store Cards)

• Child Support/Maintenance payments;

• HECS/HELP re-payments;

• Rent; and

• Any other known or disclosed liability, such as Flexi rent or Certegy payments.

When completing this worksheet always follow the standards below:

• Where required input the remaining loan term not the original loan term;

• For loan facilities, input the outstanding loan balance including any available redraw.

Tip: Redraw can be available on both Retail and Business Loan facilities.

• For overdrafts, line of credits, credit cards and other revolving credit facilities, always input the facility limit as the loan amount, not the current balance.

• Progress Draw Loans should be calculated on a Principal and Interest (P&I) basis, using the approved limit amount, not the current balance.

• For Housing Loans and Line of Credit facilities the higher of the assessment rate or actual interest rate is used.

For example: If the assessment rate is 5.0%, and the Lender inputs 4.50%, the worksheet will display an error message and default to the assessment rate. Conversely, if the Home Loan rate is 6% then this rate must be used. For all other facilities where an interest rate is required to be input, use the actual interest rate.

Responsible Lending Obligations requires BOQ to obtain the details of all fixed and variable commitments for all applicant’s.

Information to complete this part of the Serviceability Worksheet is obtained from the Lending Application form and account statements. Refer to the relevant credit policy for requirements.
