Your gift of stock could go further than cash.
If you have owned the shares for longer than one year, and if they have increased in value, you may avoid tax on the capital gains. Here’s an example:
- Suppose you decide to gift 100 shares of stock with a current fair market value of $5,000
- You bought the stock for only $1,000 more than a year ago
- Today, you can deduct the full $5,000 on this year’s income tax return -- the $4,000 capital gain is not taxed even though it has “increased” your charitable deduction
- Avoiding the capital gain makes it possible to give stock at a lower actual cost to you rather than making a cash gift of equal value.
