Long-Term Treasuries or Municipal Bonds in taxable portfolio (in 35% bracket)?
Howdy Bogleheads, My portfolio consists of: - 40% Small Value US equities. - 20% Small INTL equities. - 20% S&P 500 - 20% Bonds. I'm in my 20's, unmarried, and I'm more concerned with long-term return than portfolio volatility. I am in the 35% tax bracket. Most of my investments will be in a taxable...

Re: After-tax Returns of Total Bond vs. Intermediate Tax-Exempt on Vanguard Website
I've realized one mistake I made when reviewing these numbers. From the Vanguard website: "After-tax returns are calculated using the highest individual federal income tax rates in effect at the time of each distribution."

After-tax Returns of Total Bond vs. Intermediate Tax-Exempt on Vanguard Website
Hi Bogleheads, I'm determining what bond fund I'll use in my taxable account and I'm having a tough time making sense of the after-tax returns listed on the Vanguard website. The general rule of thumb for when to use muni-bond funds rather than Total Bond seems to be when you're in the 25% or someti...

Re: Schedule K-1 on Undistributed Profit in S-corp - Possible TurboTax Error
When preparing a tax return, if you don't understand the reason for a question being asked by the tax program, you should not assume it is a program error. While the amount distributed does not affect the taxable income on the K-1, the amount distributed does go on line 16 (code D) of the K-1 as an...

Schedule K-1 on Undistributed Profit in S-corp - Possible TurboTax Error
I am doing my taxes using Turbo Tax Business 2016 and I've come across what appears to be an error in the software. I am the sole shareholder of an S-corp that had a profit in 2016.
