Hello all, I have a few questions about the subject.
This is the first year I’m going to need to withdraw from my brokerage account. The account is setup with “average” cost basis. This account is at Vanguard, if that matters.
1. Are the capital gains on the money I withdraw the only part that counts as income for ACA?
2. With this account using average cost basis, If I withdraw 1/2 of the account total would 1/2 of the capital gains be my income?
3. Are the capital gains numbers shown on the Vanguard app accurate enough to use for this sort of income planning?
Thanks in advance!
