Under SEC Regulation D, which of the following parties is considered an accredited investor?

While a joint income over $200,000 can qualify an individual as an accredited investor, it does not apply universally; it must also be expected to continue in the current year. This option does not meet the net worth requirement necessary for the more stringent accredited investor classification outlined in Regulation D.

Although a net worth exceeding $500,000 is substantial, it does not satisfy the more stringent threshold of $1 million established for accredited investors. Thus, this criterion falls short of the necessary requirements set forth by the SEC.

This choice refers to entities rather than individuals. While it accurately describes a category of accredited investors, it does not apply to the individual context of the question regarding personal net worth requirements, which specifically pertains to individuals.
