Question
Here are some preliminary details and data about a single woman with no dependents.
She needs your help computing and filing her 2023 income taxes (due in mid-2024). She
earns a salary of $180,000 and is a resident of Ontario. Below is a list of her financial
expenses/activities during the 2023 tax year, which may (or may not) be relevant to
computing her taxes.

3. She contributed $20,000 to a TFSA, invested in a GIC earning 5% in 2023.
4. She contributed $25,000 to her RRSP and invested in a balanced international
equity mutual fund which earned only 5% as capital gain by the end of 2023. She
believes that 5% is too low. So, she liquidated all her mutual fund units at the end
of 2023 and invested all her RRSP money in the bond market.
5. She invested $15,000 into a taxable investment account and earned only 4% as
capital gain by the end of 2023 on S&P500 ETFs. Like her decision about her
RRSP, she sold all her ETFs at the end of 2023 and invested the money in the
bond market.

increased from $38,000 at the beginning of 2023 to $52,000 at the end of 2023.
The portfolio was kept intact without any trades during 2023 but she received
$1,000 as dividend in 2023.

insurance company totaling $8,500.
