LLQP Exam Dumps : Life License Qualification Program (LLQP)

Group segregated funds typically have lower Management Expense Ratios (MERs) than individual segregated funds because group plans benefit from economies of scale and pooled investment options. LLQP highlights that group plans often have reduced fees compared to individual plans due to collective investment and reduced administrative costs​.

Options A and B are incorrect as group plans typically feature lower costs and don’t often charge switching fees. Option C is incorrect as individual segregated funds typically have more flexible death benefit guarantee options, not special rates in group plans.

Lily’s RRSP contribution room is reduced by her DCPP contributions. Her total income for Year 2 was $125,000, and she contributed 5% ($6,250) to the DCPP, matched by the employer, for a total of $12,500. The Pension Adjustment (PA) for her DCPP contribution would be $12,500, which reduces her RRSP contribution room.

Calculation:

RRSP limit based on previous year’s income (18% of $120,000): $21,600

PA reduction: $12,500

Remaining RRSP contribution room for Year 2: $21,600 - $12,500 = $9,100

Including her unused contribution room: $9,100 + $15,000 = $24,100

So, Lily can contribute $24,600 to her RRSP in Year 2​.
