                            Question #3

                            Rosa joined Avion Electronics in April 1983. Her employment was terminated on November 30, 2015 and she was paid a $62,500.00 retiring allowance. Rosa joined her company's pension plan in 1986 and was fully vested on termination of employment. Calculate the non-eligible portion of the retiring allowance.

                            Reveal Solution  Discussion  0

                            Correct Answer:

                            $32,000.00 non-eligible portion
                            Explanation:
                            CRA requires separating a retiring allowance into an eligible and non-eligible portion. The eligible portion is the maximum that can be transferred to an RRSP/RPP under the special rules (without using regular RRSP room). The formula is: $2,000 for each year (or part-year) of service before 1996, plus an additional $1,500 for each year (or part-year) before 1989 in which the employee had no employer pension/DPSP benefit vested at the time of payment (or previously paid).
                            Rosa worked from 1983 to 1995 (inclusive) for pre-1996 service: 13 years × $2,000 = $26,000.
                            For the extra pre-1989 amount: she joined the pension plan in 1986 and was fully vested when paid the retiring allowance in 2015, so 1986-1988 do not qualify for the extra $1,500. However, 1983-1985 were years before 1989 when she had no vested employer pension benefit, so 3 years × $1,500 = $4,500.
                            Eligible portion = $26,000 + $4,500 = $30,500.
                            Non-eligible portion = $62,500 # $30,500 = $32,000.

                            Question #4

                            Which of the following types of payments made by a private organization would not be subject to all statutory deductions?

                            • A. Performance bonus
                            • B. Directors' fees
                            • C. Vacation pay when no time was taken
                            • D. Retroactive adjustment

                            How many pay periods will be used to calculate insurable earnings inBlock 15Bon the Record of Employment if the employee is paidweekly?

                            • A. Last14pay periods (or less if period of employment is shorter)
                            • B. Last13pay periods (or less if period of employment is shorter)
                            • C. Last7pay periods (or less if period of employment is shorter)
