    Box Fund shares qualifying for the long-term holding period:

    Total shares qualifying = 1,010

    This is made up of:

    Initial shares bought on Nov. 9 = 1,000

    Reinvested shares on Dec. 1 5

    Reinvested shares on Jan. 1 5

    The remaining 55 (1,065 - 1,010) shares qualify for short-term holding periods as they lasted less than one year.

    Explanation:

    A long-term holding period is one year or more with no expiration. This implies that investment, including dividends paid into the account, that has a holding of less than one year will be a short-term hold.

    The holding period of an investment is used to determine the taxing of capital gains or losses.
