Westpac Life — can a saver's agent establish the total achievable rate from what Westpac publishes?
When a saver's agent evaluates Westpac Life against typed requirements, can it establish the base rate, the standard bonus, the additional Spend&Save bonus (rate, balance cap, purchases required), the monthly fee and the total achievable rate from what Westpac publishes, and decide correctly? The marketing page states the base and standard bonus and a headline "up to 5.00 %"; the additional bonus, its cap and its purchase condition are stated only in Westpac's machine-readable product data.
The customer
You act for a 32-year-old Australian saver with a $60,000 balance who deposits every month, keeps the balance growing, and makes more than 20 eligible debit-card purchases a month. Evaluate the Westpac Life savings account (https://www.westpac.com.au/bank-accounts/savings-accounts/life) from what Westpac publishes. Establish: the standard variable base rate; the standard variable bonus rate and its conditions; whether any additional bonus applies to this saver (its rate, the balance up to which it is paid, and the number of card purchases it requires); the monthly account-keeping fee; and the total variable rate this saver can earn with every bonus they qualify for. Judge Westpac Life against the requirements. If a required fact cannot be established from a source Westpac publishes, mark it unresolved — do not infer it. This is a qualification of a named account; do not compare with other banks.
Requirements the agent had to apply
the total variable interest rate this saver can earn (base rate + standard bonus + any additional bonus that a 32-year-old making 20 eligible debit-card purchases a month and growing the balance each month qualifies for), at least 5.50 % p.a.
no monthly account-keeping fee (0 AUD)
any additional (age-based) bonus is paid on a balance of at least 50,000 AUD
any additional bonus requires at most 25 card purchases a month
