Every February, Reginald, a Dealing Representative, feels pressured by his Manager to generate new registered retirement savings plans (RRSP) and contributions to assist the branch in meeting broader business targets. Reginald is nearing the end of February, and he has a meeting with a new client, Orel. Orel wants to open a tax-free savings account (TFSA) to develop emergency savings because he does not want to worry about his withdrawals being taxed.

In relation to account suitability, what can be said about Reginald’s advice?

Recommending an investment solution that addresses two needs is putting Reginald’s client’s interest first

Based on Orel’s stated need, recommending an RRSP contribution is unsuitable.

Reginald is putting the client’s interest first by informing Orel why he should change his purpose for investing.

By convincing Orel to contribute an RRSP, instead of a TFSA, Reginald has put his client’s interest first.

During the calendar year, Firmansyah received a $1,800 eligible dividend from a large Canadian bank and a foreign, dividend from his The USD/CAD exchange rates is 1.3605.
Firmansyah’s federal marginal tax bracket is 29%. The enhanced dividend gross-up rate is 38% and the federal dividend tax credit rate for eligible dividends is 15%.
What federal tax liability will be due from the investment income?

$522.00

$348.00

$695.76

$870.00

说明
To calculate Firmansyah’s federal tax liability from the investment income, we need to follow these steps:
Step 1: Convert the foreign dividend from USD to CAD using the exchange rate given in the question.
The exchange rate is 1.3605 CAD per USD, which means that 1 USD is equivalent to 1.3605 CAD.
Therefore, Firmansyah’s foreign dividend in CAD is:
500×1.3605=680.25
Step 2: Calculate Firmansyah’s grossed-up dividend income from both sources. A grossed-up dividend income is the actual dividend received plus a percentage of the dividend that reflects the corporate tax paid by the issuer. The percentage varies depending on whether the dividend is eligible or non-eligible.
According to [this site], an eligible dividend is a dividend paid by a Canadian corporation that meets certain criteria, such as being listed on a designated stock exchange or being a subsidiary of such a corporation. A non-eligible dividend is a dividend that does not meet these criteria, such as a dividend paid by a foreign corporation or a small Canadian business corporation. The gross-up rate for eligible dividends in 2020 was 38%, while the gross-up rate for non-eligible dividends in 2020 was 15%.
Therefore, Firmansyah’s grossed-up dividend income from both sources is:
(1800+680.25)×(1+0.38)=3426.35
Step 3: Apply Firmansyah’s federal marginal tax rate to his grossed-up dividend income to get his federal tax before credits. A marginal tax rate is the percentage of tax applied to an additional dollar of income. According to [this site], Firmansyah’s federal marginal tax rate for 2020 was 29%, as his taxable income was between $150,473 and $214,368. Therefore, Firmansyah’s federal tax before credits is:
0.29×3426.35=993.64
Step 4: Subtract Firmansyah’s federal dividend tax credit from his federal tax before credits to get his net federal tax liability from the investment income. A dividend tax credit is a percentage of the grossed-up dividend income that reflects the corporate tax paid by the issuer and avoids double taxation.
The percentage varies depending on whether the dividend is eligible or non-eligible. According to [this site], the federal dividend tax credit rate for eligible dividends in 2020 was 15%, while the federal dividend tax credit rate for non-eligible dividends in 2020 was 9.03%. Therefore, Firmansyah’s federal dividend tax credit from both sources is:
(1800+680.25)×0.38×0.15=297.88
Step 5: Subtract Firmansyah’s federal dividend tax credit from his federal tax before credits to get his net federal tax liability from the investment income. This is the amount of federal income tax that Firmansyah has to pay or has overpaid from the investment income. Therefore, Firmansyah’s net federal tax liability from the investment income is:
993.64297.88=695.76
Hence, option C is correct. References: [Canadian Investment Funds Course (CIFC) | IFSE Institute],
