What is the capital gains tax rate on interest paid from privately held stock?

Interest income is taxed as ordinary income. Dividends can be taxed at the maximum capital gain rate of 15%.


jeff the drunk
42, its always the answer.


TaxGuru
I assume that you mean dividends. The maximum rate of tax on dividends from ordinary domestic corporations is 15%.

Please consult your tax advisor for more details.

If you're talking about the dividends on the stock, then it's 15% or 5% depending on your tax bracket, I think. This was signed in 2003. It might be different because it's privately held, but the goal was to end double taxation, so you should see the lower rate. You might want to check with a professional. Before, it would be taxed as ordinary income.

While distributions are normally taxed as dividends, you wouldn't really be seeing capital gains tax unless you exited your position, but it doesn't sound like you're doing that here.

The normal capital gains tax for long term positions (more than a year) is 15% or 5%, depending on tax bracket. Short term gains are taxed as ordinary income.


Your Greasy Granny
on interest PAID: 0%

on interest EARNED: depends widely on the type of stock. Can range from 5-50%

Capital gains is not paid on interest income.
Interest and dividend income is taxed as ordinary income.

Capital gains only applies to the difference in the price of the stock itself when you sell it.

The highest tax rate on a net capital gain is generally 15% (or 5%, if it would otherwise be taxed at 15% or less). There are 3 exceptions:

1. The taxable part of a gain from qualified small business stock is taxed at a maximum 28% rate.
2. Net capital gain from selling collectibles such as coins or art is taxed at a maximum 28% rate.
3. The part of any net capital gain from selling Section 1250 real property that is due to recapture of straight-line depreciation is taxed at a maximum 25% rate.

OMG, this is a great example of why you don't go to the internet for professional advise. Heaven help you if you listened to most of that crowd. Shaunna gets the "A". But I want to simplify it a little more.

Stock pays ordinary dividends out of these dividends some may be qualified dividends. If there are some qualified dividends (this would be from stock held for a specific amount of time) they are eligible for a lower tax rate which is a capital gains tax rate. You then are required to do a worksheet in the 1040 instructions to determine what rate the portion of the dividends falls into a capital gains rate.

For example you have $950 in ordinary dividends and $700 in qualified dividends. $250 of the dividends would be taxed at your normal tax rate & $700 would be taxed at 5 or 15%.

You would place your ordinary dividends on line 9a of form 1040 and qualified on line 9b. Last year the worksheet was about page 33 or 34 I believe (sorry I don't have instructions handy)

Reference:

How to Report Qualified Dividend Income

Payers report qualified dividends to shareholder in box 1b of Form 1099 – DIV. The shareholder reports these dividends on line 9b of Form 1040 or Form 1040A....
If a shareholder has qualified dividends, the shareholder’s tax is figured by completing either:

Schedule D (Form 1040) or the Schedule D Tax Worksheet
Or

The Qualified Dividends and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet in the Form 1040 instructions or Form 1040A instructions.

On the other hand if you took out a loan to invest in stock you are talking about investment interest (which you would pay) and you would have to itemize to report that.
