Which of the following is a fair comparison of two mutual funds? A Income funds and growth funds should be compared based on yield per share after tax B A comparison of two income funds should use a ten-year period for one and a five-year period for the other C A comparison of two growth funds should use total initial investment, disregarding sales charges D A comparison of a municipal bond fund and an income fund should use after-tax return for both

D Income funds cannot be compared to growth funds on the basis of income yield because the investment objective of growth funds is to achieve capital appreciation, not income. Thus, Choice A is incorrect. Any comparison between funds should be over the same period, thus Choice B is incorrect. A fair comparison will take into account the effect of the sales charges, because one fund may have higher sales charges and thereby reduce the effective investment return. Thus, Choice C is incorrect. Municipal bond funds are a type of income fund, so they can fairly be compared to another income fund. However, to have a valid comparison, the yield on the income fund must be brought to an "after-tax" basis, since municipal bond yields are free of federal income tax (and state income tax for the purchaser of a bond that lives in the state of issuance). Thus, Choice D is correct.
