Capital Gain

Capital gains are not considered earned income for Social Security benefit calculations. Social Security benefits are primarily based on your average indexed monthly earnings from work, which includes wages and self-employment income. However, capital gains can impact your overall income for tax purposes, which may influence your tax liability on benefits, but they do not directly affect the calculation of Social Security benefits.

To avoid paying capital gains tax on the sale of your primary residence, you must live in the house for at least two of the five years preceding the sale.

If you meet this requirement, you may be eligible for an exclusion of up to $250,000 in gains for single filers and up to $500,000 for married couples filing jointly.

The capital gain yield refers to the percentage increase in the stock price over a specific period, reflecting the appreciation of the investment's value. It is closely related to the expected future stock price, as a higher expected future price typically indicates a higher capital gain yield. Investors often estimate future stock prices based on factors such as earnings growth, market trends, and economic conditions, which in turn influence their expectations of capital gains. Thus, a positive relationship exists: as expected future stock prices rise, so too does the potential for capital gain yield.

The capital gains tax rates are determined by the type of investment asset and the holding period of the asset. In additional to the federal capital gains tax rates, your capital gains will also be subject to state income taxes. Many states do not have separate capital gains tax rates. Instead, most states will tax your capital gains as ordinary income subject to the state income taxes rates.

Gross earnings typically refer to total income before any deductions, encompassing wages, salaries, and other forms of compensation. Dividends and capital gains are considered investment income rather than earned income, so they are generally not included in gross earnings. However, for tax purposes, both dividends and capital gains are often reported as part of an individual's total income. It's important to clarify the context in which "gross earnings" is being used, as definitions can vary.

It is not so much up to you. If you sell an asset, the selling price minus your basis is your taxable gain. I guess you could sell it for less, but what would that do for you. People learn that doing things so that you have less taxes, is just taking money out of your pocket. If you sell something at a profit, your taxes will be less that one third of your profit, so in order to reduce your taxes, you have to reduce your income. If you try to sell an asset for less to yourself, a family member, or a friend then the price is not an arms length transaction and if audited, you will pay taxes on the fair market value, pay penalties, interest, and probably will be convicted of tax fraud.
