An investor who buys convertible preferred shares and subsequently converts the preferred shares to common shares does not incur a capital gain or loss at the time of conversion. Instead, the cost of convertible shares becomes the equivalent cost of the newly acquired common shares. A capital gain or loss will be incurred only when the newly acquired common shares are sold or otherwise disposed of. 5, record 1, English, - convertible%20preferred%20share

The correct French equivalent is "action" in this context because "stock" and "share" are used interchangeably as a singular noun. However, "stock" is usually a collective noun, with "actions" as its French equivalent and "shares" as its synonym. 6, record 1, English, - convertible%20preferred%20share

La clause de rachat d'une action privilégiée convertible et rachetable ne limite pas le potentiel de profit, mais elle confère à la compagnie le pouvoir de rendre la conversion obligatoire, lorsque le cours des actions privilégiées, suivant la tendance de celui des actions ordinaires, monte au-dessus de leur prix de rachat. 3, record 1, French, - action%20privil%C3%A9gi%C3%A9e%20convertible
