Companies report a gain or loss when they repurchase their bonds because the book value may more/less than the amount that is used to repurchase (retire) a bond.
There is no real economic gain or loss in the repurchase of bonds. This is because the perceived gain or loss is exactly offset by the present value of the future cash flow implications of the repurchase.
What else can I help you with?
Do Covalent bonds do not gain or lose electrons?
That is correct. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms rather than the transfer of electrons, as seen in ionic bonds. The atoms involved in a covalent bond share electrons in order to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
Does sulfur for ionic or covalent bonds?
Sulfur can form both ionic and covalent bonds. In ionic bonds, sulfur tends to gain two electrons to achieve a stable octet configuration. In covalent bonds, sulfur often shares electrons with other nonmetals.
Do atoms of nonmetals lose protons when they form ionic bonds?
No, atoms of nonmetals do not lose protons when they form ionic bonds. Nonmetals tend to gain electrons to achieve a full outer shell, becoming negatively charged ions (anions) in ionic bonds.
What type of a bond holds the atoms of a compound together?
A chemical bond holds the atoms of a compound together. This bond forms when atoms share, gain, or lose electrons to achieve a more stable electron configuration and lower energy state. The most common types of chemical bonds are covalent bonds, ionic bonds, and metallic bonds.
Is it true that Covalent bonds do not gain or lose electrons but rather share electrons?
Yes, it is true. Covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons to achieve a stable electron configuration. Unlike ionic bonds, where electrons are transferred from one atom to another, covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms.
What is the chemical bonds that gain or lose?
These are ionic bonds.
How are bonds taxed?
The income from bonds is taxed, unless the bonds are exempt from federal tax (municipal bonds) and/or state tax (varies by state). If there is gain on the sale of a bond (you receive more than you originally paid for it), the gain is taxable.
What type of elements gain and loose electrons as they form bonds?
Metals lose electrons, nonmetals gain electrons.
Do wash sale rules apply to gains when selling stocks?
Yes, wash sale rules apply to gains when selling stocks. This means that if you sell a stock at a gain and then repurchase the same or substantially identical stock within 30 days, you may not be able to claim the gain for tax purposes.
Which type of element is more likely to gain electrons when it forms bonds?
nonmetals
What type of element is most likely to gain electrons when it is forms bonds?
metals
Which do you report on tax forms realized capital gain or unrealized capital gain?
You will report the sale of a capital asset on your 1040 tax form either the schedule D or the schedule 4797 and you will either have a gain or a loss on each transaction that you have to report on the schedules. You are not allowed to claim a loss on the sale of a personal asset but any gain on the sale of a personal asset is taxable income on your 1040 income tax return. You can call them what ever you want. When you read the tax form instructions they do not say realized capital gain or unrealized capital gain.
Do Covalent bonds do not gain or lose electrons?
That is correct. Covalent bonds involve the sharing of electrons between atoms rather than the transfer of electrons, as seen in ionic bonds. The atoms involved in a covalent bond share electrons in order to achieve a more stable electron configuration.
Do Muni Bonds have a good rate of return?
Municipal bonds can have a good rate of return. They can also have high capital gain taxes. Letting these bonds grow to maturity can ensure maximum returns.
Does hypothyroidism cause you to gain weight?
Some patients report weight gain with subclinical hypothyroidism. Although the T4 is normal in subclinical hypothyroidism by definition, some patients report symptoms with only the elevated TSH.
What is a value investor?
A somewhat conservate investor who is looking for stable companies for long term appreciation gain. Little risk with smaller but consistant returns. Investing in the top mutual funds, index-funds, and bluechip stocks and bonds has been the typical mix.
What happens to bonds between atoms when chemical change occur?
An atom can gain, lose, or share.
