Flow-through Tax Saving Opportunities

MineralFields Flow-Through Limited Partnerships are ideal investments to help investors achieve maximum tax savings with reduced risk to their capital.  Here is a situation where investors benefit from flow-flow through investing:

SITUATION— AN INVESTOR HAS A LARGE RSP

SUGGESTION–Start an RSP meltdown strategy using a MineralFields Flow-Through Limited Partnership

EXAMPLE*

An investor with a $100.000 taxable income currently holds a $250,000 RSP:

Total taxes payable =                                                                       $26,491

Take $25,000 out of the RSP

Taxable income increased to =                                                    $125,000

Net taxes payable =                                                                           $43,773

Invest the $25,000 in a MineralFeilds FTLP:

Net taxes payable =                                                                           $24,770

Immediate tax savings =                                                                  $1,721

After the MineralFields FTLP is rolled over, the investero could choose to take out the $25,000 where cash in hand would be $21,689 after tax instead of only $16,000 if withdrawn from the RSP.

HOW IT WORKS

-An investor can cash out a portion of their RSP, usually 5% to 10% of the total RSP portfolio (a withholding tax exemption can be requested by using tax form T-1213

-Invest this amount in MineralFields FTLP

-The deduction received from the FTLP investment more than covers the RSP cash out

-When the FTLP is rolled over, transfer tax from from our Explorer Series Fund to a more conservative fund like our Flex Dividend and Income Growth ™ Series Fund from our Pathway Multi Series corporate class mutual funds.

-The investment continues to grow tax free and matches a more conservative risk tolerance

-Take another portion of the RSP and repeat the process

-If the investor needs to access the funds they can redeem them from their Pathway Fund and pay tax on capital gains instead of paying on gross income
