8 T20-8 BUSINESS DECISION CHAPTER 20 SECTION I DOLLAR-COST AVERAGING 26.

21 T20-2 BUSINESS DECISION CHAPTER 20 SECTION III CAPITAL GAINS 25. There are many tax rules and regulations that you should be aware of when investing; whether it be in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, real estate, or collectibles. Capital gains are proceeds derived from your investments. Unless they are specified as being tax-free, such as municipal bonds, you must pay capital gains taxes on these funds. Capital gains are taxed in one of two ways. If the investment was held for one year or less, this is considered short-term and is taxed as ordinary income at your regular income tax rate. If the investment was held for more than one year, it is considered long-term, and qualifies for various tax discounts, as follows: Capital Gains Rates Stocks Held 0% or 5% tax bracket Over 5% bracket year or less 0% or 5% 25% 35% Over year 5% 5% a. If you are in the 5% tax bracket, how much tax would be saved by waiting for an investment to become long-term before selling, if your taxable profit from this investment was $25,000?
