Finra Exam Series-6 Topic 1 Question 32 Discussion

The true statement is that a letter of intent may be backdated up to 90 days so that any purchases made during that prior time period will count toward making a breakpoint. An investor has 13 months in which to invest the amount stipulated in the letter. The invested funds must consist of new money; reinvested dividends and capital gain distributions don't count. If the amount stipulated in the letter of intent is not invested during the 13 months, the investor must only make up the difference between the sales charge he paid and what he should have paid, given that he didn't qualify for the breakpoint. No interest is charged on the difference.
