MFTC32: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator ------------------------------------ (32-bit edition) for 32-bit Windows(R) v1.0 a product of RCCO Research MFTC32: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator, 32-bit edition, provides a facility for determining tax cost of redeemed shares (full or partial) in one or more mutual fund accounts. The program computes dividends, capital gains distributions, redemptions, and purchases on an average-cost basis. It is meant to provide a simple, non-technical method for those mutual fund accountholders who must file Schedule D (Capital Gains & Losses) on IRS Form 1040 to cover their fund redemptions during any tax years. When a holder of shares in a mutual fund redeems any portion of shares in the account, the IRS requires that holder to file Schedule D and list not only the date of redemption and the redemption amount, but also the date of acquisition and the exact cost of those shares (full and fractional) redeemed. MFTC32 is meant to assist the shareholder in making the determination of cost along with a record of the needed dates. Since shares are often purchased and distributions reinvested at different times at varying Net Asset Value (NAV) figures, a system of determining average share cost basis (along with other recordkeeping) may be advantageous for the account. MFTC32 may be used with any number of fund accounts and works with both equity and bond funds that are purchased in full and fractional shares. Once the cost of the redemption(s) during the tax year(s) has been determined, it is relatively easy to ascertain the gain or loss incurred for each redemption and make the appropriate entries as required on the Schedule D tax form. Fund tables may be viewed/edited in either Form or Table view. An easy-to-use single-button selection for the Report Writer prints formatted tabular reports for fund tables. Complete documentation and help is available online as well as in Windows .DOC format. The unregistered copy is fully-functional as to the features and components found in the registered copy; it allows creation of as many fund tables as the user wishes in order to satisfactorily and fully evaluate the program. The tables do have a reasonable limitation on the number of transactions that may be viewed/edited in a table. Any tables created with the unregistered copy will be fully and immediately usable with a registered copy. The full registration fee is only $27.95. (The purchase of a registered copy of MFTC32: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator, 32-bit edition, may be tax deductible. Please consult a tax advisor.)
