D is correct because Sujay’s registered retirement savings plan (RRSP) contribution room for the year will be reduced by $3,600. This is because his employer’s defined contribution pension plan is considered a registered pension plan (RPP), which affects his RRSP contribution room through a pension adjustment (PA). The PA is calculated as 18% of his earned income in the previous year minus his RPP contributions in the current year. In this case, Sujay’s PA for the current year is $3,600, which is 18% of his $60,000 salary minus his 3% contribution ($1,800) and his employer’s 3% contribution ($1,800). The PA reduces his RRSP contribution room for the next year by the same amount. It will have an effect on his RRSP contribution room (A), as it is not based on earned income only, but also on RPP contributions. It will not reduce his contribution room by $51,800 (B), as this is more than his earned income. It will not reduce his contribution room by $10,800 ©, as this is 18% of his earned income without subtracting his RPP contributions.
