Question 1 [18 marks]
Read the scenario below and then answer the question that follow.
Luja and Kim planned to get engaged in August 2021, after the birth of their second child
Kgomotso, who is expected to be born in July 2021. Their first child is Justice who is currently
thirteen-years of age. Luja has another child with Tshifularo, Nthabeleng, who is currently
twenty-three years of age and studying at a university.
Unlike Luja who was a qualified engineer, Kim was a seasonal income earner and depended
on Luja for support. After giving birth to Kgomotso in July 2021, Luja was involved in a terrible
car accident and died.
Luja’s mother, Thami, used to receive a monthly amount of R1000 from Luja, even though she
was a retired dental medical professional. When Luja died, Thami also submitted a claim to
Luja’s deceased estate. Having realised the high cost of a burial while planning Luja’s funeral,
Kim submitted life insurance proposals on his own life and that of his children as well as Nthabeleng
and Thami’s life. Luja’s testamentary will was declared null and void by the court.
The latest records of Luja’s financials show the following:
Amount available for distribution from the deceased estate R383 000
Accumulated retirement annuity value R520 000
