T5008 (19) INFORMATION TO USE FOR THE TAX RETURN CASE STUDY: James Doode decided to start his own business in 2019 after retiring from the Canadian Armed Forces. Upon retirement in 2018, James elected to receive immediate monthly pension payments from his former employer's pension plan. James' business consists of a motorcycle shop known as James' Specialty Bike Shop, selling and repairing motorcycles (in du stry code 441220). James proudly specializes in customizing motorcycles to very exclusive clients. James hired you to prepare his personal tax return for the year 2020, as well as for his common-law partner, Susan Bond. James and Susan want to pay the very least tax possible. They will use any election or choice legally available to them to achieve that objective. James'income is mainly from his pension and personal business, while Susan's income is mainly from her salary as bookkeeper for James' business. Attachedis an Appendix showing the relevant financial information pulled from the accounting records for James' business. The amounts shown have not been adjusted for tax purposes. James expects you to identify which items are allowed for tax purposes to comply with the tax laws in Canada. James and Susan have other in come from their investments and rental property. Below is the information needed to prepare their tax returns. Tax forms James and Susan received are included on the Case Study link as separate documents confirming the various items of income earned for the year. Detailed Information: James was born on November 1, 1970. He is divorced but currently lives with Susan Bond, his common-law partner, at 123 Main Street, Anytown, Ontario, KOH 1H0. Both have been living together for several years now. James' Social Insurance Number (SIN) is 527-000-145. Susan's SIN is 130-692-544. Susan was born on December 2, 1970 and has been blind since birth but still manages to work as a bookkeeper for James' business - see separate T4 slip attached issued to Susan for 2020 and financial information for James' business in the Appendix below. Susan also has income from joint investments with James - see further below During 2020, James received bi-weekly pension payments from his former employer's pension plan for a total pension income of $50,000 - see T4A slip attached issued to James for 2020 (box 16). Federal income tax of $8,000 was withheld at source on th at pension income- see box 22 of the T4A slip. James has spousal support obligations from his previous marriage. He is required to pay $1,000 per month to his former spouse (Mary Roode: SIN: 527- 000-129) in accordance with a court order. During the year 2020, James was only able to pay 3 months worth of support. James and Susan have no children but James' older brother Ricklives with them on a permanent basis since 2016 as he cannotlive on his own due to a permanent mental disability. Rick was born on June 10, 1966 and has $8,000 of social assistance income for 2020 under the Ontario Disability Support Program. His SIN is 527-000-947. Forms T2201 have already been filed with CRA in previous years for both Susan and Rick and their condition has not changed since. During 2020, James received $7,000 of eligible dividends on shares he owns of the Great Bank of Canada, a Canadian public company - see the T5 slip James received from the bank (box 24) for 2020. No income tax was with held on that dividend. James and Susan earned interest income for a total of $5,000 during 2020 from a joint investment account(co-owned 50% each)- see the T5 slip James and Susan received from the bank as Co-owners (box 13). No income tax was with held on that income. During the year 2020, James sold 2,000 shares of the Great Bank of Canada (a publicly traded company) that he had acquired over the last 10 years with an average cost of $21.00 per share. The shares were sold on June 1, 2020 at a price of $72.00 per share, on which a 1% commission was paid to a broker ($0.72 per share). Rental Activities James and Susan acquired jointly (50% each) a residential property during 2020 which they rentout to earn income. The property was acquired on February 1, 2020 and rented-out for a 1-year period to a youngfamily th at recently moved to the area for $3,500/month. Below is the information relating to that property for 2020, which is co-ownedin equal share by James and Susan (50% each): Address: 121 Main Street, Anytown, ON (co-owned by James and Susan equally. 50% each) Cost of property purchased: $395,000 of which $55,000 was for the land. Cost of additions made to the building in October 2020: $90,000 (addition of a garage).

They had purchased the cottage back in 2010 at a cost of $60,000. They sold the cottage on June 15, 2020 for $260,000 cash. All transaction costs were borne by the purchaser. James and Susan do not wantto design ate the cottage as their principal residence because they feel their current home has a much greater accrued gain and want to preserve the principal residence tax exemption for th at property instead. James also sold a boat he owned near the cottage. The boat had a cost of $35,000 and was sold for $15,000 on June 20, 2020. James contributed $22,000 into his own RRSP on September 1, 2020. James wants to deduct the maximum amount this year. His unused RRSP Deduction Room at the end of 2019 was $10,500 and his Earned Income for 2019 (business income) was $60,000. He had no Pension Adjustmentfor 2019. Susan also contributed $6,000 to her own RRSP on the same date. Her unused RRSP Deduction Room at the end of 2019 was $1,500 and her Earned Income for 2019 was $20,000. She had no Pension Adjustmentfor 2019.

James proudly specializes in customizing motorcycles to very exclusive clients. James hired you to prepare his personal tax return for the year 2020, as well as for his common-law partner, Susan Bond. James and Susan want to pay the very least tax possible. They will use any election or choice legally available to them to achieve that objective.

Susan also has income from joint investments with James - see further below During 2020, James received bi-weekly pension payments from his former employer's pension plan for a total pension income of $50,000 - see T4A slip attached issued to James for 2020 (box 16). Federal income tax of $8,000 was withheld at source on th at pension income- see box 22 of the T4A slip. James has spousal support obligations from his previous marriage. He is required to pay $1,000 per month to his former spouse (Mary Roode: SIN: 527- 000-129) in accordance with a court order. During the year 2020, James was only able to pay 3 months worth of support. James and Susan have no children but James' older brother Ricklives with them on a permanent basis since 2016 as he cannotlive on his own due to a permanent mental disability.

Forms T2201 have already been filed with CRA in previous years for both Susan and Rick and their condition has not changed since. During 2020, James received $7,000 of eligible dividends on shares he owns of the Great Bank of Canada, a Canadian public company - see the T5 slip James received from the bank (box 24) for 2020.

The shares were sold on June 1, 2020 at a price of $72.00 per share, on which a 1% commission was paid to a broker ($0.72 per share). Rental Activities James and Susan acquired jointly (50% each) a residential property during 2020 which they rentout to earn income. The property was acquired on February 1, 2020 and rented-out for a 1-year period to a youngfamily th at recently moved to the area for $3,500/month.

They had purchased the cottage back in 2010 at a cost of $60,000. They sold the cottage on June 15, 2020 for $260,000 cash. All transaction costs were borne by the purchaser. James and Susan do not wantto design ate the cottage as their principal residence because they feel their current home has a much greater accrued gain and want to preserve the principal residence tax exemption for th at property instead. James also sold a boat he owned near the cottage. The boat had a cost of $35,000 and was sold for $15,000 on June 20, 2020. James contributed $22,000 into his own RRSP on September 1, 2020.
