NEW QUESTION # 14
The following table outlines details for a life insurance policy issued in 1995:
Details
Amounts
Cash surrender value
$8,000
Premiums paid
$6,000
Dividends declared
$1,500
Net cost of pure insurance
$750
Marginal tax rate
30%
Assuming the policy is completely surrendered, what are the taxes payable?
Answer: A
Explanation:
The taxable policy gain is determined by comparing the policy's surrender proceeds with its adjusted cost basis (ACB).
For this policy, the simplified ACB calculation is:
Premiums paid # policy dividends # net cost of pure insurance
Therefore:
$6,000 # $1,500 # $750 = $3,750 ACB
CRA guidance confirms that the ACB of a life insurance policy is increased principally by premiums and reduced by specified amounts including the net cost of pure insurance; policy dividends to which the policyholder becomes entitled also reduce the ACB.
The policy gain on surrender is therefore:
$8,000 cash surrender value # $3,750 ACB = $4,250 taxable policy gain
Apply the 30% marginal tax rate:
$4,250 × 30% = $1,275
Therefore, option C is correct.
The $4,250 amount itself is not the tax payable; it is the amount included in taxable income under the simplified calculation. Applying the client's marginal tax rate determines the resulting tax liability.
FPII reference/topic: Insurance Planning - permanent life insurance; cash surrender; adjusted cost basis; net cost of pure insurance; policy gains.
NEW QUESTION # 15
Fiona's eligibility for insurance benefits is measured by her ability to perform the usual activities of daily living. What type of insurance policy does Fiona have?
Answer: D
Explanation:
Long-term care insurance is the correct classification because eligibility for benefits is commonly based on an insured person's inability to independently perform specified activities of daily living (ADLs). Typical ADLs include bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, transferring, and maintaining mobility. The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada describes long-term care insurance as coverage intended for individuals who become unable to care for themselves or who require assistance managing daily activities.
Disability insurance is fundamentally different. Its principal purpose is income replacement where illness or injury prevents the insured from performing occupational duties. Eligibility therefore normally depends on an occupational definition of disability rather than inability to perform basic ADLs. Critical illness insurance generally pays a lump-sum benefit following diagnosis of a covered condition that satisfies the policy definition. Extended health insurance reimburses eligible medical and health-related expenses that provincial plans may not fully cover.
The wording specifically connects benefit eligibility to Fiona's functional capacity in everyday living. That is the characteristic trigger associated with long-term care coverage.
FPII reference/topic: Insurance Planning - health-related insurance; long-term care coverage; activities-of- daily-living benefit triggers.
NEW QUESTION # 16
The Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines are not intended to apply under which circumstance?
Answer: D
Explanation:
The Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines establish a ceiling of $350,000 of gross annual payor income for the routine application of their formulas. Above that level, the formulas are not intended to be applied mechanically.
Justice Canada's SSAG materials explain that the ceiling and floor identify the income range for the "typical" cases in which the formulas can reliably generate support ranges. Once the payor's gross income exceeds
$350,000, support must be assessed more individually; the $350,000 figure is not an absolute cap on support.
A court may still award higher support after examining the parties' circumstances.
The Guidelines are relevant to married spouses and may also be used for unmarried spouses where the applicable provincial or territorial family-law legislation recognizes a spousal-support entitlement. Thus, options A and C do not identify the intended limitation.
Option B is also incorrect. Income below $50,000 does not automatically put a case outside the Guidelines.
The SSAG contain a separate lower-income "floor," historically set materially below $50,000, together with special considerations for lower-income payors.
Therefore, the high-income ceiling in option D is the circumstance identified by the FPII framework.
FPII reference/topic: Family Law - spousal support; Spousal Support Advisory Guidelines; ceilings and floors; high-income cases.
NEW QUESTION # 17
Evelyn spends a great deal of her money on vacations. Consequently, her net cash flow is not as much as she would like. What is the best strategy to help Evelyn improve her cash flow?
Answer: A
Explanation:
Evelyn's problem is fundamentally one of discretionary spending management. Vacations are normally discretionary expenditures, meaning their amount, timing, and frequency can be adjusted without affecting essential living requirements. The most effective strategy is therefore to prioritize and control her spending.
Net cash flow is the difference between cash inflows and cash outflows. If Evelyn's income is unchanged, reducing or better controlling discretionary expenditures directly increases the amount available for savings, debt reduction, investment, or other financial objectives.
Creating a separate vacation account, option A, can be a useful budgeting technique after a suitable spending level has been established, but it does not itself correct excessive vacation expenditure. Increasing the liquidity of savings changes the accessibility of assets rather than improving ongoing cash flow. Option D focuses on non-discretionary expenses such as housing, essential utilities, basic food, and necessary insurance. Those expenses may be more difficult to reduce and are not identified as the source of Evelyn's problem.
A financial planner should therefore help Evelyn rank financial objectives, establish realistic discretionary- spending limits, prepare a cash-flow budget, and monitor actual expenditure against that budget.
FPII reference/topic: Savings Planning and Debt Management - cash-flow management; budgeting; discretionary and non-discretionary expenditures.
NEW QUESTION # 18
Roy gifted his nephew Charles, age 16, shares for his birthday. The managed portfolio will generate both dividends, and capital gains and losses. What will be Roy's future tax implications, with respect to this transfer, until Charles reaches the age of majority?
Answer: B
Explanation:
Because Charles is a related minor, the attribution rules apply to income generated from property transferred to him by Roy. Dividend income earned on the gifted shares is therefore attributed back to Roy and included in Roy's taxable income while Charles remains a minor.
The important distinction is between income from property and capital gains or losses. CRA's interpretation of subsection 74.1(2) confirms that income or loss from transferred property is generally attributed to the transferor where property is transferred to a related minor. This captures investment income such as dividends and interest.
Capital gains and capital losses receive different treatment. The same CRA guidance states that subsection
74.1(2) does not ordinarily attribute a subsequent taxable capital gain or allowable capital loss arising from disposition of transferred property back to the transferor. Those gains or losses generally remain with the minor, subject to specialized exceptions not indicated in this scenario.
Therefore, an equity portfolio producing capital appreciation may have different attribution consequences from one producing substantial current dividend or interest income.
FPII reference/topic: Investment and Tax Planning - attribution rules; transfers to related minors; property income versus capital gains.
