What response would a loss-averse investor be most likely to choose in selecting a preferred investment return scenario?
Answer(s): C
Loss-averse investors prioritize minimizing potential losses over maximizing gains. The option with a 25% chance of gaining $2,000 and a 75% chance of losing nothing has the lowest loss potential, making it the preferred choice. The feedback from the document states:"The loss-averse investor will choose a lower potential of loss over a more rational choice. In this example, a 25% chance of gaining $2,000 and a 75% chance of losing nothing has the lowest possible loss potential, and will typically be the statement selected by the loss-averse investor."
What bias would influence an investor's decision to continue to hold an unprofitable investment despite little likelihood of an improvement in the investment's value?
Loss aversion bias causes investors to hold onto unprofitable investments due to a stronger desire to avoid losses than to seek gains. The feedback from the document states:"Loss aversion bias states that people generally feel a stronger impulse to avoid losses than to acquire gains. Loss aversion can prevent people from unloading unprofitable investments, even when they see little to no prospect of a turnaround."

Rebecca, an investor in a 40% marginal tax bracket, receives $1,200 in Canadian dividends eligible for the dividend tax credit. What is the dividend tax credit that applies to this income?
Answer(s): A
The dividend tax credit for Canadian dividends is calculated based on the grossed-up dividend amount. For eligible dividends, the gross-up is 38%. The taxable amount for $1,200 in dividends is $1,200 × 1.38 = $1,656. The dividend tax credit is 15.02% of the grossed-up amount: $1,656 × 15.02% = $248.73. The feedback from the document confirms:"The taxable amount of the dividend is the income received plus a 38% gross-up amount. In this example, $1,200 + ($1,200 × 38%) = $1,656. The dividend tax credit is 15.02% of the grossed-up amount, in this example, $1,656 × 15.02% = $248.73."
