- MFTC: Mutual Fund Tax Calculator (MFTC) 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. MFTC 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. MFTC 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 is available
- online as well as in Windows Write/WordPad format.
-
- There are several new features implemented in v2.0 of MFTC: Record Number
- Indicator in both Form & Table Views, Edit/Non-Edit Cell indicator in
- Table View, Detail View window available in Table View, enhanced data
- entry error messaging, system information functions, expanded menu items,
- MRU (most recently used) fund table list on the File Menu, significant
- documentation revisions -- to name several.
-
- 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 $24.95.
