La selección de acciones de $22,000 que se convirtió en $1 millón, y la trampa fiscal que se esconde dentro

Una enorme ganancia de inversión se ha convertido en una decisión difícil mientras la familia sopesa los impuestos frente a los riesgos de mantener una sola acción.

Un inversor de 84 años convirtió una compra de acciones de una sola empresa por valor de $22.000 en una posición valorada en aproximadamente $1 millón. Ahora, su familia debe decidir si vender y pagar un impuesto estimado de $150.000 sobre las ganancias de capital o mantener las acciones y potencialmente evitar la mayor parte de esa factura a través de las normas fiscales vigentes en EE. UU.

El caso se analizó en Ramsey's Everyday Millionaires después de que Seth, de 52 años, de Boca Ratón, llamara para pedir consejo sobre el patrimonio de su padre.

Detalles clave

El padre, que se encuentra en una residencia para personas con problemas de memoria debido a la demencia de Alzheimer, compró 1.000 acciones a $22 cada una. Hoy en día, esas acciones se cotizan a más de $1.000 cada una. Su patrimonio también incluye una cuenta IRA valorada entre $800.000 y $900.000 y dos cuentas de Morgan Stanley, lo que eleva el patrimonio total a poco menos de $5 millones.

Si las acciones se venden ahora, la familia estima una factura por impuestos a las ganancias de capital de alrededor de $150.000. Si las acciones se mantienen hasta el fallecimiento del padre, los herederos podrían beneficiarse de un incremento de la base impositiva (step-up in basis), que restablece la base de costo de las acciones a su valor de mercado en ese momento. Eso podría eliminar la mayor parte o la totalidad de la ganancia imponible.

Para reducir el riesgo sin renunciar a la totalidad del beneficio fiscal, Seth sugirió vender solo entre el 20% y el 25% de la participación. Eso probablemente generaría una factura de impuestos de unos $30.000 a $40.000, al tiempo que dejaría la mayor parte de las acciones elegibles para el incremento de la base impositiva.

Por qué es importante

Para los inversores con grandes ganancias en una sola acción, equilibrar la planificación fiscal y el riesgo de la cartera puede marcar una diferencia significativa. Una venta parcial puede ayudar a reducir la exposición al tiempo que limita el impacto fiscal inmediato.

La decisión de la familia pone de manifiesto un reto común para los inversores a largo plazo: proteger años de ganancias gestionando al mismo tiempo los impuestos y el riesgo de concentración. Los profesionales financieros y fiscales pueden ayudar a evaluar el mejor enfoque en función de las circunstancias de cada familia.
