A is correct because retractable preferred shares are a type of preferred shares that give the holder the option to sell the shares back to the issuer at a predetermined price and within a specified time. This feature provides the holder with more flexibility and protection against interest rate fluctuations. Participating preferred shares (B) are a type of preferred shares that give the holder the right to receive additional dividends if the issuer’s earnings exceed a certain level. Convertible preferred shares © are a type of preferred shares that give the holder the option to convert the shares into common shares of the issuer at a predetermined ratio and price. Redeemable preferred shares (D) are a type of preferred shares that give the issuer the option to buy back the shares from the holder at a predetermined price and within a specified time.

A mutual fund trust is a type of unit trust that meets certain conditions under the Canadian Income Tax Act and is eligible for favourable tax treatment. A unit trust is a collective investment vehicle that holds assets and distributes profits to individual unit owners, also called unitholders, instead of reinvesting them in the fund. A mutual fund trust is not a corporation and does not have a board of directors or shareholders. It is also not a closed-end fund, which has a fixed number of shares that trade on an exchange. A mutual fund trust is an open-end fund, which can issue and redeem units at any time based on the net asset value of the fund.

 If Ellen receives the National Child Benefit Supplement (NCBS), Jeff may be eligible for the Canada Learning Bond (CLB). The CLB is a grant of up to $2,000 that the Government of Canada deposits into a child’s RESP to help low-income families start saving for their child’s education2. The CLB does not require any contributions from the parents. To be eligible for the CLB, the child must have been born after December 31, 2003 and the family must receive the NCBS, which is part of the Canada Child Benefit3. The other statements are false. If Jeff qualifies for additional CESG, his CESG lifetime maximum increases to $7,200, not $10,000. If Jeff decides not to pursue a post-secondary education, he cannot keep the CESG; it must be returned to the government. George may open an RESP for Jeff and it will qualify to receive CESGs, as long as George is a resident of Canada and has a valid social insurance number.
