How your written Project is graded
Project tasks are used to determine your ‘competence’ in demonstrating the required knowledge and/or
skills for each subject. As a result, you will be graded as either Demonstrated or Not yet demonstrated.
Your assessor will follow the below process when marking your Project :
• Assess your responses to each question, and sub-parts if applicable, and then determine whether you
have demonstrated competence in each question.
• Determine if, on a holistic basis, your responses to the questions have demonstrated overall competence.
You must be deemed to be demonstrated in all assessment items in order to be awarded the units
of competency in this subject, including:
• all of the exam questions
• the written and oral Project .
‘Not yet demonstrated’and resubmissions
Should sections of your Project be marked as ‘not yet demonstrated’you will be given an additional
opportunity to amend your responses so that you can demonstrate your competency to the required level.
You must address the assessor’s feedback in your amended responses. You only need amend those sections
where the assessor has determined you are ‘not yet demonstrated’.
Make changes to your original submission. Use a different text colour for your resubmission. Your assessor
will be in a better position to gauge the quality and nature of your changes. Ensure you leave your first
assessor’s comments in your Project , so your second assessor can see the instructions that were originally
provided for you. Do not change any comments made by a Kaplan assessor.
Units of competency
This written Project is your opportunity to demonstrate your competency against these units:
FNSFMB401 Prepare loan application on behalf of finance or mortgage broking clients
FNSFMB402 Identify client needs for broking services
FNSFMB403 Present broking options to client
FNSFMK505 Comply with financial services regulation and industry codes of practice

Note that the written and oral Project is one of two assessments required to meet the requirements of the
units of competency.

Section 1: Case study 1 — Philip and Jennifer Brown
Background
Philip and Jennifer Brown are a young couple about to buy their first home. They have been married for
five years and during that time have rented an apartment while saving for their own home.
Following a personal referral from Glenn Brown, Philip’s brother you have already had a first meeting with
Philip and Jennifer to discuss their objectives and needs. They admitted they have little time to do much
research of lenders, have limited knowledge of the loan products available and have approached you to
guide them through the process as they are confused.
During (and subsequent) to your first meeting, Philip and Jennifer have provided the basic information
documents — pay slips, tax returns, bank statements, property details for review/verification. You have
now undertaken your preliminary assessment and need to discuss and present to them the proposal
covering the options and your recommendations. It is important to get the proposal moving quickly,
as the agent has indicated other parties are interested in the property.
They have been looking at properties for the past three months and have found a 10 year old established
apartment that has really caught their eye, although they have some concern over the kitchen which
requiressome minor renovations.
They have not paid a deposit at this stage, but the Real Estate Agent has provided some guidance on
additional fees and charges.
Following is a summary of the details of the property they wish to purchase, the couple’s financial and
