Question 3

A government benefits letter reads: 'Your Canada Child Benefit for July 2026 to June 2027 has been calculated based on your 2025 adjusted family net income. Payments of $583.50 will be deposited on the 20th of each month.' How often are payments made?

Question 4

A course catalogue entry reads: 'COMM 201 — Business Communications. Prerequisites: COMM 101 with a minimum grade of C+. Co-requisite: ENGL 100. Offered Fall and Winter terms only.' A student has completed COMM 101 with a B- but has not taken ENGL 100. Can they register?

Accepted Answer

No, because they have not met the co-requisite

Answer

Although the prerequisite is met, the co-requisite (ENGL 100) must be taken at the same time, which the student has not arranged.

Question 5

An insurance policy summary reads: 'Your deductible is $500 per claim. After the deductible, the plan covers 80% of eligible expenses up to $10,000, and 100% thereafter, to an annual maximum of $50,000.' If a covered expense totals $5,500, how much will the insurance pay?

Accepted Answer

$4,000

Answer

After the $500 deductible, $5,000 remains. The plan covers 80%: $5,000 x 0.80 = $4,000.
