With mutual fund A shares, the price an investor pays is referred to as:
 
A. NAV
B. POP
C. ROA
D. LOI
 
Answer: B. Mutual fund A shares typically charge a front-end sales charge, also called a load, which is a percentage of the investment in the mutual fund. The front-end sales charge or load is included in the price per share an investor pays. The current share price of a mutual fund is referred to as the net asset value, or NAV. The share price including any sales charge is referred to as the public offering price, or POP. For example, a fund with a NAV of $15 and a 5% front-end load has a POP of $15.79. That is calculated by dividing the $15 NAV by .95 (1 minus the 5% load). ROA refers to rights of accumulation and LOI refers to letter of intent. Both ROA and LOI are ways investors can get a volume discount on the price of load mutual fund shares.

February 1st, 2019

Solomon Exam Prep—a leading publisher of securities exam prep materials—is proud to announce a partnership with Ohio Dominican University. With this partnership, ODU students will get everything needed to pass the all-important SIE exam.

As FINRA’s “introductory” exam, the SIE is used by securities firms to measure the seriousness of job candidates. For years, Solomon’s instructors have helped professionals pass securities exams—and now they’ve drawn on this expertise to create the best possible SIE test-prep materials. Geared to a variety of learning styles, these include:

  • A digital study guide
  • An audiobook
  • Flashcards
  • Free mobile apps
  • An online exam simulator with unlimited quizzes and exams
  • A video lecture with slides and narration
  • Custom study schedules for classes or independent study

Perhaps most importantly, Solomon’s materials are complemented by personalized support. As one student noted, “I didn’t think this kind of customer service and general human kindness existed anymore.” The company’s dedication shows in its consistently high pass rates.

Partner instructors rave about Solomon’s materials as well—especially for featuring:

  • An online interactive admin portal where courses and student progress can be monitored (making “back-end faculty work a breeze,” as UN-Omaha’s Ray LeBlanc recently put it)
  • A curriculum tailored to fit the needs of each school and program
  • No expense to the partnering school beyond the study materials for the students

Contact us at 503.601.0212 to discuss setting up a Solomon partnership for your school—and to join such prestigious institutions as the University of Nebraska-Omaha, Adelphi University, Seton Hall University, and the University of Dallas.

Question

 

 

 

 

 

 

Spock is an adviser who takes great pride in his use of logic when making investment recommendations.  Which of the following investment vehicles would he be least likely to recommend for a client’s IRA?
 
A. Corporate bonds
B. Growth stocks
C. Municipal bonds
D. REITs
 
Answer: C. Having municipals in an IRA is allowed, but it would not be the most logical investment choice.  That is because the tax advantage associated with municipal bonds is wasted in a tax-deferred account like an IRA.
