Personal Income Taxes • Marginal tax rate = the tax rate on the next dollar of income. • Wages, tips, and interest income are considered ordinary taxable income. • Deductions: charitable donations, mortgage interest, a portion of student loan interest, personal exemptions, and medical expenses to an extent(> 7.5% of gross income).
Personal Investment Taxes • Interest Income taxed at individual’s marginal tax rate. • Dividend Income tax rate: 15% or less • Financial and Real assets held for less than 12 MONTHS and then sold for a gain are considered short-term capital gains and taxed at the taxpayer’s marginal tax rate. • Long-term (held more than 12 months) capital gains are taxed at a max rate of 15%.
Taxable vs. Tax Exempt Bonds State and local government bonds (munis) are generally exempt from federal taxes.
After-tax Investment Returns • After-tax Return=Before-tax Return(1-T) • After-tax Corporate Dividend Return = Before-tax Dividend Yield (1 - .3T) • Municipal Bond Interest is tax exempt on the federal level • Equivalent pretax return = Muni Return/(1-T)
After-Tax Return Example • Which of the following would you prefer if your marginal tax rate is 28%? • Exxon bonds at 10% or California municipal bonds at 7%. • At what marginal tax rate would you be indifferent be these two bonds?
MVA and EVA • Market Value Added (MVA) = Market value of common equity – book value of common equity • Feb 2006 for Best Buy: MV of common equity = $26.60 billion, book value of common equity = $5.25 billion • Feb 2006 Best Buy MVA = $26.6 – $5.25 = $21.35 billion • Economic Value Added (EVA) = NOPAT – Annual dollar cost of capital = true economic profit for a given period • EVA = EBIT(1-T) – [Total investor supplied operating capital x After-tax percentage cost of capital]
Best Buy’s 2006 EVA (millions) • Let’s assume Best Buy’s tax rate is 35% and after-tax cost of capital is 17%. • EVA = EBIT(1-T) – AT cost of capital x capital • Investor supplied capital = current portion of long-term debt + long-term debt + total equity =5853 • EBIT = EBT + Interest paid = 1737 • EVA = 1737(1-.35) – 0.17(5853) = 134.04 • EVA Break-even cost of capital = 1737(1-.35)/5853 = 19.3%
