ATReturn.taxable: Calculation of after-tax return in a taxable account

Description Usage Arguments Value

View source: R/ATReturn.calc.r

Description

The after-tax return calculation in the taxable account is tedious but not complicated. For each year we calculate the income that would be received. The income on an investment (as opposed to what may be received by an investor) grows by a growth rate. The income is taxed based on its character (ordinary, qualified, etc) and the investor's tax rate. Likewise there is capital gains depending on the growth and the turnover. We assume the initial basis equals the initial value (a restriction that could be altered in future version). The basis is updated each period according to sales and purchases. Looping through all the periods of the horizon we arrive at a final income. This income along with the valuation change determines the final value of the asset. This value is adjusted for a final sale assuming any gain (loss) is long-term.
