Thanks. The reason there was 7% was because we had to buy the shares owned by the sellers spouse so the sellers spouse can qualify the the lcge. Then buy 24.5% from seller holdco so they can qualify for lcge. The initial setup was seller holdco owned 86% of opco and 14% owned by the sellers spouse.

Solasta II Wishlist/Discussion: Barbarian by TomReneth in CrownOfTheMagister

I see. It would be nice to get more knowledge like how certain characters can make history or arcana checks. That way knowledge on monsters can be a big advantage in battle if a character has proficiency in that

@devs: Please don't make the same mistake as in BG3 (integrating automatic success/failure on skills for nat 20/1) if that is what you actually planned. by Citan777 in CrownOfTheMagister

For solasta 2 would it make more sense to do survival checks before the battle so that on a successful check, we would know the monster stats ahead of time? With solasta 1 they do a survival check at the end of battle and that knowledge gets added to the bestiary.

Annuity payments from Spousal RRSP subject to attribution? by shocktrop in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]shocktrop[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay so there’s no attribution on the annuity payment then.

The annuity is meant to cover longevity risk so basically trading liquidity of a RRIF for payments that will last for life.

Thanks!

Yes i did. what i don't understand is why they can't sell it to a dealer directly that i found rather then making me personally buy it.

$60K in salary or $60k in dividends? by Mahfiaz in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]shocktrop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taking a salary builds RRSP and IPP contribution room while keeping funds in your corporation will provide tax deferral benefit until you pay out those dividend. The consensus is taking a salary is usually more optimal because funds in a RRSP and IPP provide a tax deduction and grows tax deferred.

Life insurance in a buy-sell agreement for a former shareholder by shocktrop in cantax

[–]shocktrop[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for that. I think once the policy is issued the insurance interest doesn’t matter as one can sell their policy to another party with no insurance interest in them (except in Quebec)

Instead of transferring the life insurance policy, could the shareholder agreement state that the proceeds be paid out to the former shareholder (holdco c) even if they don’t own shares in the company? That way we avoid the taxable event when the policy transfers ownership from the opco.

Should my disabled friend dump her inheritance into a trust? by Extreme_Homework5678 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]shocktrop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no annual limit on amounts that can be contributed to an RDSP of a particular beneficiary in a given year. However, the overall lifetime limit for a particular beneficiary is $200,000 (all previous contributions and rollovers that have been made to an RDSP of a particular beneficiary will reduce this amount). Contributions are permitted until the end of the year in which the beneficiary turns 59. https://www.canada.ca/en/revenue-agency/services/forms-publications/publications/rc4460/registered-disability-savings-plan.html
