What term describes a public benefit whose eligibility depends on income and other resources?

AA universal cash benefit
BA matched savings benefit
CA tax advantaged benefit
DA means tested benefit
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. A means tested benefit
1. Some benefit programs weigh what an applicant earns and owns before granting benefits. 2. That test of income and resources is called means testing. 3. A benefit awarded on that basis is a means tested benefit. 4. A universal benefit applies no such test, which is the opposite arrangement. 5. Matched savings and tax advantaged describe account features, not eligibility screens. _Source: FDIC Money Smart for Adults (September 2018), Module 5: Your Savings, section Assets and Income Limits_
