Payment for the above assets would consist of cash plus the assumption of Extras liabilities.

1. You have suggested to Carla that she consider selling the common shares of Extra, rather than the specific assets. You have estimated the market value of the shares to be $900,000. The shares were acquired in 2014 for a cost of $100,000. In previous years, Carla had used the capital gain deduction to exempt from tax $120,000 of gains. Her cumulative net investment loss (CNIL) at the end of 2021 is estimated to be $40,000.

Required: 1. Determine the active business income, aggregate investment income, increase to the capital dividend account and increase to the non-eligible refundable dividend tax on hand resulting from the sale of the assets.

2. Disregard the amounts calculated in Part 1 and assume new information has come to light and that you have correctly updated your calculations to the following:

The total active business income created on the asset sale is	110,000
The total aggregate investment created on the asset sale	200,000
The increase to the capital dividend account resulting from the asset sale is	200,000
The increase to the non-eligible refundable dividend tax on hand from the asset sale is	61,340

All other information is unchanged. Determine the net income for tax purposes and taxable income.

3. Disregard the amounts you calculated in Part 2 and assume that the net income for tax purposes was 830,000 and the taxable income was 826,000. The amounts listed in Part 2 resulting from the asset sale are unchanged. Determine the total active business income from all sources.

4. Disregard the active business income calculated in Part 3 and assume it was actually 630,000. Also assume that the net income for tax purposes is still 830,000 and the taxable income is still 826,000. Determine the Part I tax, Part IV tax, and dividend refund. Enter reductions as negative amounts with a minus (-) sign. If an amount is zero, enter "0". Use 0.3833 when multiplying to represent 38 1/3%. Use 0.3067 when multiplying to represent 30 2/3%.

5. If Carla decides to sell the shares of Extra, what amount will be added to her net income for tax purposes in her 2021 taxation year?
