6 In which year would the Red Grass Fund’s investment management fee be affected by Summer’s recalculation using the high-water mark?
选项：
A.2016
2017
2018
解释：
C is correct.
The 2016 fee calculation would not be affected by the high-water mark provision because it is the first year of operation of the fund and the return is positive (no prior losses to be offset). The investment management fee in 2016 is calculated as follows:
Investment management fee = 1.00% + [20% × (8.0% – 1.00%)] = 2.4%.
The 2017 fee calculation would also not be affected by the high-water mark provision because the profit sharing component of the fee is zero as a result of a negative return in that year. The investment management fee is calculated as follows:
Investment management fee = 1.00% + 0.00% = 1.00%.
The 2018 fee would be affected by the high-water mark provision because the sharing fee percentage would now be part of the 2018 gain and will need to offset the prior year losses, and only the remaining gains will generate a fee. The performance-based fee would be based on only the gains in excess of the high-water mark. The actual investment management fee charged (percentage and dollar value) will depend on the specific feature of the calculation, which is beyond the scope of this reading. Note that the correct answer can be identified by observing that 2018 is the only year in which a positive return follows a negative return in the prior year.
