 B is correct because capital gains distributions from a mutual fund trust are reported annually on a T3 slip, which shows the amount and type of income received from the trust. Capital gains from mutual fund trusts are not deferred until the investor exits the mutual fund (A), as they are realized and distributed by the trust every year. Capital gains distributions are considered a disposition and are therefore taxable ©, as they increase the investor’s adjusted cost base (ACB) and reduce the capital gain or increase the capital loss when the investor sells the mutual fund units. Capital gains from mutual fund distributions are 50% taxable (D), not 100%, as only half of the capital gain is included in the investor’s taxable income.

 The “Know Your Product” obligation requires that Dealing Representatives understand all the products they purchase, sell or recommend for their clients, including their structure, features, risks, costs and suitability. Rehan has fulfilled this obligation by reviewing the features of the Hedge Fund and explaining them to Georgi, who may not be aware of the lock-up period and its implications. The other Dealing Representatives have failed to fulfill their obligation by either not knowing or not disclosing important information about the products they deal with.

Whether the couple saves on income tax will be dependent on Minu’s marginal tax rate. Pension income splitting is a tax planning strategy that allows a spouse or common-law partner who receives eligible pension income to allocate up to 50% of that income to their spouse or common-law partner1. This may result in tax savings if the transferring spouse or common-law partner is in a higher tax bracket than the receiving spouse or common-law partner1. The tax savings depend on the difference between the marginal tax rates of the spouses or common-law partners1. The other statements are incorrect. Minu will not be exposed to a pension adjustment (PA) if she receives income from Saheed’s pension. A PA is a measure of the value of benefits accrued in a registered pension plan or deferred profit sharing plan during a calendar year2. It reduces the RRSP contribution room of the plan member, not the spouse or common-law partner who receives part of their pension income2. Pension income splitting is not a form of tax evasion and is not illegal based on income tax legislation. It is a legitimate way to reduce taxable income and taxes payable by shifting income from a higher-income spouse or common-law partner to a lower-income spouse or common-law partner1. Pension income splitting may change the total amount of income taxes paid by the couple, depending on their marginal tax rates. If the transferring spouse or common-law partner is in a higher tax bracket than the receiving spouse or common-law partner, pension income splitting may lower their combined taxes payable1. However, if they are in the same tax bracket, pension income splitting may not have any effect on their taxes payable1.
