买GIC 好还是买基金好? 看一看两者在纳税上的区别
I have read quite a few questions about buy GIC vs. buy mutual fund and the questions about GIC rate. In addition to other benefit of a mutual fund over GIC, there is also a huge tax benefit on equity fund. Here is the illustration. Assumptions: Return = 5% Tax rate = 40% Capital = $100,000 Interest Suppose you use $100,000 to buy GIC at 5% A year later, you made $5,000 interest Doesn’t matter if you take out the money or not (For example, if you bought a 5 years GIC, after one year, you can’t take it out), you still get a tax slip from the bank to report your interest income of $5,000 Your tax payment is $5,000x 40% = $2000 Your net gain = $3000 Capital Gain Suppose you use $100,000 to buy mutual fund unit at $10/unit You get 10,000 units A year later, the unit price of the mutual fund that you bought increased from $10 per unit to $10.50 per unit. Now you made $5,000 (10,000 x $0.50) If you decide not to take out the money, you don’t have to pay tax; unless the fund company made a capital gain distribution (means they pass the gain to the investors). If you do decide to take out the $5,000, it means you will need to sell 476 units to get $5,000. ($5,000 divided by $10.50) $5000 = 476 units Among 476 units, your capital gain portion is actually only $238 (476 x $0.5) Because capital gain is taxed at 50%, this means that only half of your capital gain, which is $119, is taxable The tax you will have to pay is $119 x 40% = $47.6. Let’s round it up to $48. Your net gain is $5,000 - $48 = $4952 Please note that not all the mutual funds are equity funds. Some of them are dividend fund, which also provide a tax advantage. Some of them are balanced funds which have both equity stocks and fixed income stuff such as bonds or money market funds. Some of them are fixed income funds which do not provide the same type of tax advantage of equity funds. If your money is inside of RRSP, the tax treatment of any mutual fund is the same. The above illustration only works when your investment is outside of RRSP. |

是不是 9524 x $0.5 = $4677.7,这个应该算作你的 capital gain?还是 9524 x $10.5 = $10002 算作你的投资本金?如果 $4677.7 算作你的 capital gain,你一样要缴 40% 的税,和 GIC 没有区别。 如果在你卖掉余下的 9524 units 时,只按本金计算,那末这里就有一点疑惑,为什末当初在卖掉 476 units 时, 要按 476 x $0.5 来计算 capital gain,而在后来卖掉余下的 9524 units,就不用9524 x $0.5 = $4677.7 来计算 capital gain 呢? 外行的疑点问题,谢谢解答。 |

区别有二,第一、GIC的gain每年都要认,不管你取不取出来;m fund在你取出来的时候认,起到延期交税的作用; 第二、capital gain 只有50%作为应纳税所得额 强烈建议LZ用中文写,这里有时态的问题,第一遍我都没看懂 |

六子很厉害啊。 股票和基金盈利只要你没有抛出,就不算当年收入纳税。什么时候抛出,盈利的50%算做当年的收入纳税。所以具有延税功能,换言之就是有免税功能,延税即免税。另外如果想募捐,那么可以捐股票,比现金要更合算,可以获得更多的免税额(如果你向可以给你开免税额的机构捐款的话)。具体的要根据具体事例分析。 GIC每年纳税,而且是100%作为当年收入纳税。 我早就说过,有钱最蠢的是不投资,其次就是投资GIC。GIC是最不安全的投资。GIC的利率只有4,刨除通货膨胀,收入很低,如果通货膨胀率高于GIC利率,那么你的投资就是负的,再加上还要交税。选一个稳定增长的基金,收益远远高于GIC。 不要太贪心。投资之神巴菲特坐拥300多亿美元身家,他的投资收益平均到每年也就是20%。 |

总之,年收入越少越要买GIC,手里的钱越少越要买GIC,要买房买车更要买GIC。 楼主的比较是有问题的,你有10万,投资GIC,缴税是可能有4000,但你手里的本金是106000。如果你投资MF,缴税确实可能是 $48,但手里的本金只有$4952,买任何大件都需要贷款,还得再背上6%的利息。 而且,买MF有风险,有血本无归的可能性,就是为了分散投资风险,也应该买一些GIC(此处特别推荐PC和ICICI). 另,你要是特别关注你65岁以后的生活,可以买RRSP里的GIC和MF,这个的避税效果,比单独买MF强多了。 |

Actually, the way that I am paid means that we are both on the same boat. When you money grow, I make more money. When you lose money, I lose money. When you leave, I make nothing. Therefore, I will try my best to make you making money and to keep you satisfied. Not like salary paid employees, your portfolio performance has nothing to do with their income. That is why you don't get a call from your bank too often regarding your portfolio performance. Sherry Sherry |

Remember, you already paid $48 a year ago. Now you sold everything and paid another $936 in tax. Your total tax payment amount now is $936+$48=$984. Remember, when you buy GIC, you have paid $2000 the first year. Therefore, there is still significant tax savings when buy mutual funds. The conservative party proposed that any capital gain would not be taxable if the investor re-invest it within 6 month. If this bill go through, you don't have to pay any tax when you sold the entire $105,000 but re-invested (bought something else, let's say, a revenue property) within the next 6 month. Pleas note, this is not the case yet but could be true in the future. I also see a lot of friends talking about the risk of investing in mutual funds. There are a number of ways to overcome this. One is to buy segregated funds which can guarantee your principal up to 100%. Other ways, I will do some illustrations later. Sherry |

Somebody would argue that it is eventually comes out of clients anyway. You are right but remember, the rate of return (or the fund performance) quoted by the fund company is after all the expenses occured by the fund company, not before. Sherry |
