Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

Since the MaxCharge fund has a 5% front-end load and a 12b -1 fee that is 0.25% of its average net assets, any rear-end load, it may have, is limited to 3.25%. The maximum sales charge that is allowed is 8.5%, and this includes the front-end load, rear-end load, and 12b-1 fee. Since MaxCharge has a front-end load and a 12b-1 fee that totals 5.25%, its rear-end load is limited to 8.5% - 5.25% = 3.25%.

I’m not sure about that. 4.75% sounds too high.

The front-end load is 5%, so that affects the rear-end load limit.

How can a fund have a rear-end load if it already has a front-end load? Sounds off.

I thought the limit was related to the total fees, but I’m confused about how the front-end load affects the rear-end load.

I feel like the answer might be 3.25%, but I can't recall the exact formula we used in class.

I think I practiced a similar question where we had to find the maximum rear-end load based on other fees. Could it be 4.25%?

I remember something about the total of front-end loads and 12b-1 fees needing to stay under a certain limit, but I'm not sure how to calculate it exactly.
