If you’re planning to sell investments or rebalance brokerage assets next year, it’s possible you won’t trigger a tax bill for 2024.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The IRS on Thursday released dozens of inflation adjustments for 2024, including higher income tax brackets, increased standard deductions and boosted income thresholds for capital gains.<\/p>\n

For 2024, there are higher thresholds for the 0%, 15% and 20% long-term capital gains brackets, applying to assets owned for more than one year.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

More from Year-End Planning<\/h2>\n
\n

Here’s a look at more coverage on what to do finance-wise as the end of the year approaches:<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

“It’s great from a tax planning perspective,” said Tommy Lucas, a certified financial planner and enrolled agent at Moisand Fitzgerald Tamayo in Orlando, Florida. “There’s definitely an opportunity to take some gains next year.”<\/p>\n

If you’re in the 0% capital gains bracket, you can sell long-term assets or rebalance your taxable portfolio without adding to your tax liability, he said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

How to calculate your capital gains tax bracket<\/h2>\n
\n

You’re more likely to fall into the 0% capital gains bracket in 2024 with higher standard deductions and capital gains income thresholds.<\/p>\n

“A lot of people don’t realize,” Lucas said.<\/p>\n

For 2024, you may qualify for the 0% long-term capital gains rate with taxable income of $47,025 or less for single filers and $94,050 or less for married couples filing jointly.<\/p>\n

The standard deduction will rise to $29,200 in 2024 for married couples filing jointly, an increase from $27,700 in 2023, and single filers may claim $14,600, up from $13,850. The standard deduction is even higher if you’re at least age 65 or blind.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

However, many investors don’t realize capital gains brackets use “taxable income,” which is calculated by subtracting the greater of the standard or itemized deductions from your adjusted gross income.<\/p>\n

“It’s really quite a bit of capital gains you can receive without paying any tax,” said certified public accountant Tom Wheelwright, CEO of\u202fWealthAbility. \u00a0<\/p>\n

For example, if a married couple earns $125,000 together in 2024, their taxable income may fall below $94,050 taxable income after subtracting the $29,200 married filing jointly standard deduction.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Who may fall into the 0% capital gains bracket<\/h2>\n
\n

There are several scenarios where higher earners may unknowingly fall into the 0% capital gains bracket for 2024, experts say.<\/p>\n

For example, retirees who haven’t started collecting Social Security income or required minimum distributions “absolutely should be looking at this,” Wheelwright said, noting that $94,050 of taxable income is a “pretty big number.”<\/p>\n

You may also fall into the 0% capital gains bracket if you experienced a job loss or lower revenue as a business owner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
