Gifts of Stock |
Learn More >> |
If you own stock, it is often more tax-wise
to contribute stock instead of cash. A gift of appreciated
stock generally offers a two-fold tax saving. First, you
avoid paying any capital gains tax on the increase in
value of the stock. Second, you receive an income tax
deduction for the full fair market value of the stock
at the time of the gift. |
