Explanation
This is the net asset value per unit (NAVPU) for the Marigold Canadian Dividend Fund for July 6. The NAVPU is calculated by dividing the net asset value (NAV) of the fund by the number of units outstanding. In this case, the NAVPU is $8.25 ($45,668,900 / 5,564,443).
The NAV is the value of a fund's assets minus the value of its liabilities. The value of assets is the value of all the securities in the portfolio, plus any cash and cash equivalents, plus any accrued income for the day. The value of liabilities is the value of all short-term and long-term liabilities, plus any accrued expenses for the day. The NAV is usually expressed on a per-share or per-unit basis, which is the NAVPU.
The NAVPU is the price at which investors can buy or sell units of the fund. It is determined at the end of each trading day based on the closing market prices of the portfolio's securities. The NAVPU can change daily depending on the performance of the securities in the fund and the fund's expenses.

Explanation
A group RRSP is a retirement savings plan sponsored by an employer that allows employees to contribute through regular payroll deductions and benefit from tax advantages and possible employer matching. The employer is responsible for choosing the plan provider, which is the financial institution that administers the group RRSP and offers a range of investment options for the employees to choose from. The employer may also negotiate lower fees and better services with the plan provider than what individual RRSPs can offer.
Therefore, statement D is correct.
The other statements are incorrect for the following reasons:
* Statement A: A group RRSP is less costly and time consuming to administer than traditional pension plans, as it does not require actuarial valuations, funding requirements, or regulatory filings.
* Statement B: If you leave your employer, your group RRSP does not stay with the employer. You can transfer your group RRSP to an individual RRSP or another registered plan without tax consequences, as long as there are no locked-in provisions.
* Statement C: You do not need to wait until you file your taxes to receive your contribution tax
* deduction. Your contributions are deducted from your gross income before tax is calculated, so you receive an immediate tax benefit on your paycheque.

Explanation
A registered disability savings plan (RDSP) is a savings plan intended to help parents and others save for the long-term financial security of a person who is eligible for the disability tax credit (DTC). The DTC is a non-refundable tax credit that helps persons with disabilities or their supporting persons reduce the amount of income tax they may have to pay. To be eligible for the DTC, a person must have a severe and prolonged impairment in physical or mental functions, as defined by the Income Tax Act and as certified by a medical practitioner. Therefore, Alex must qualify for the DTC in order to be eligible for an RDSP. References: What is a registered disability savings plan (RDSP) - Canada.ca, Disability tax credit - Canada.ca

Explanation
The value of John's investment on December 31 of this year can be calculated by multiplying the number of units he holds by the net asset value per unit (NAVPU) on that date. Since John invested $500 on January 3 and $500 on July 1, he holds a total of 125.6 units (62.8 units from the first investment and 62.8 units from the second investment). Therefore, the value of his investment on December 31 will be 125.6 units x $9.55 NAVPU = $1,256.

Explanation
The investment objective for the $10,000 currently sitting in Lucas's RRSP is safety of principal, which means that he wants to preserve the value of his investment and avoid any loss of capital. Safety of principal is a suitable objective for Lucas because he plans to withdraw the money in two months for the LLP, which is a very short time horizon. He does not need to generate any income or growth from his investment, as he will use the money to pay for his education expenses. He also does not need to worry about tax-deferral, as the LLP allows him to withdraw money from his RRSP without paying any tax, as long as he meets the eligibility and repayment requirements1. Therefore, Lucas should invest his money in low-risk and liquid assets, such as money market securities or guaranteed investment certificates (GICs), that will protect his principal and ensure that he can access his funds when he needs them.
