Tax Impact – May/June 2010 (PDF)

Peterson Sullivan’s quotes of interest from this season’s tax newsletter:

  1. “From an income tax perspective, whether it makes sense to convert to a Roth IRA depends on whether you’re better off paying the tax now or later.  When you do a Roth conversion, you have to pay taxes on the amount you convert . . .”
  2. “There are still some limits on a state’s ability to extend the reach of its taxes, though many states are pushing to have these restrictions relaxed . . .”
  3. “From an estate planning perspective, basis is important because it affects the amount of taxable gain or loss your beneficiary will realize should he or she sell the asset . . .”
