NEW QUESTION # 41
What is a disadvantage of a corporation?
Answer: B
Explanation:
A significant estate-planning disadvantage of private corporate ownership is the potential for double taxation at the death of a shareholder.
At death, a shareholder is generally deemed to dispose of capital property, including shares of a private corporation, at fair market value immediately before death unless an available rollover applies. This can produce a capital gain on the deceased shareholder's terminal return.
A second layer of tax can subsequently arise when corporate assets are sold and the corporation's after-tax value is distributed to the estate or beneficiaries. Without appropriate post-mortem planning, tax may therefore arise once at the shareholder level on the deemed disposition of the shares and again at the corporate
/shareholder level as corporate value is extracted.
Option B is incorrect because one of the principal advantages of incorporation is limited liability, subject to guarantees, statutory liabilities, and exceptional circumstances. Option C is also incorrect because corporations are not categorically excluded from government assistance programs. Option D does not describe the principal disadvantage being tested and overstates the operation of attribution rules.
Post-mortem strategies such as loss carryback or pipeline planning may be considered to mitigate the potential double-tax exposure, depending on circumstances.
FPII reference/topic: Financial Planning for Small Business - incorporation; shareholder death; deemed disposition; post-mortem taxation and double-tax exposure.
NEW QUESTION # 42
What do most successful cases of unequal division of property involve?
Answer: B
Explanation:
Short marriages provide the strongest basis among the listed alternatives for an unequal division of matrimonial property. Under Ontario's equalization regime, the normal rule is that the spouse with the lower net family property is entitled to one-half of the difference between the spouses' net family properties.
A court can depart from equal division only where ordinary equalization would be unconscionable, a deliberately demanding legal threshold. One factor specifically identified in the Family Law Act is where the amount a spouse would otherwise receive is disproportionately large in relation to a period of cohabitation of less than five years.
That provision explains why short marriages are particularly significant in unequal-division cases. A spouse may, for example, experience a major increase in net family property during a very brief marriage, producing an equalization entitlement disproportionate to the duration of the relationship.
Income disparity alone is not generally a basis for unequal property division; it is more directly relevant to support. Domestic abuse can have legal significance, but it does not automatically change equalization unless the statutory property criteria are established. Joint ventures concern a different property or unjust-enrichment analysis.
FPII reference/topic: Family Law - equalization of net family property; unequal division; unconscionability; short marriages.
NEW QUESTION # 43
Spouse A, age 69, has been making regular contributions to a spousal Registered Retirement Savings Plan for spouse B, age 65. Assuming Spouse A has sufficient unused contribution room to carry forward, how long can they continue making contributions on behalf of Spouse B?
Answer: C
Explanation:
The relevant age for determining how long contributions can continue to a spousal RRSP is the age of the spouse who is the annuitant of that RRSP-Spouse B.
CRA confirms that even after a contributor has passed the age at which contributions to the contributor's own RRSP are permitted, the contributor may continue making deductible contributions to a spouse's or common- law partner's RRSP, provided the contributor has RRSP deduction room and the spouse is 71 or younger on December 31 of the contribution year.
Accordingly, Spouse A's reaching age 71 does not by itself terminate the ability to contribute to Spouse B's spousal RRSP. Since Spouse B is currently 65, contributions can continue until December 31 of the calendar year in which Spouse B turns 71, assuming Spouse A continues to have available RRSP deduction room.
The "first 60 days" concept concerns which taxation year certain RRSP contributions may be deducted against; it does not extend an RRSP's statutory contribution eligibility beyond the end of the year in which its annuitant turns 71.
Therefore, option B correctly identifies the deadline.
FPII reference/topic: Retirement Planning - spousal RRSPs; contribution age limits; contributor deduction room; age-71 rules.
NEW QUESTION # 44
Diana has begun receiving spousal support payments and child support payments from her ex-husband Bruce.
What tax planning issue should be of greatest concern to Diana?
Answer: C
Explanation:
Diana's principal tax concern is the tax payable on qualifying spousal support payments that she receives.
Under Canadian income-tax rules, periodic spousal support paid pursuant to a qualifying court order or written agreement is generally deductible by the payer and taxable to the recipient. CRA therefore requires a recipient to include the taxable portion of qualifying spousal support in income.
Child support is treated differently. Under the current regime applicable to post-April 1997 arrangements, child support is generally not deductible by the payer and not taxable to the recipient. CRA expressly distinguishes the two forms of support on this basis.
Because Diana is receiving both forms of support, she should distinguish them carefully and plan for the income-tax liability associated with taxable spousal support. Depending on the amount received and the withholding arrangements, she may need to retain sufficient cash to satisfy tax instalments or the balance due when filing her tax return.
Option A concerns Bruce's potential deduction rather than Diana's tax liability. Options B and C incorrectly treat ordinary child-support payments as deductible or taxable.
FPII reference/topic: Family Law - taxation of support; spousal support; child support; payer deductions and recipient income inclusion.
NEW QUESTION # 45
Which term describes an attempt to create a tax system that gives no preference to the form of ownership?
Answer: A
Explanation:
Integration describes the Canadian tax-policy objective of producing approximately the same overall tax burden whether income is earned personally or through a corporation and subsequently distributed to an individual shareholder.
Without integration, income earned through a corporation could be subject to inappropriate double taxation or, conversely, receive a permanent tax advantage solely because of the ownership structure. Canada attempts to mitigate this through mechanisms such as the dividend gross-up and dividend tax credit.
CRA describes the principle directly: corporate and personal tax integration is intended so that income earned by a Canadian corporation and paid to an individual as a dividend bears approximately the same combined tax as income earned directly by the individual.
"Equalization" is not the relevant tax principle in this context; it is commonly associated with fiscal transfers among governments. "Equilibrium" is an economic concept rather than the Canadian corporate-personal tax mechanism. "Graduated rates" refers to progressive taxation under which marginal tax rates increase as taxable income increases.
Integration therefore seeks tax neutrality between different forms of ownership or income earning, particularly corporate versus direct individual ownership.
FPII reference/topic: Investment and Tax Planning - tax integration; dividend gross-up and credit mechanism; corporate versus personal taxation.
