Interest paid, and how much is deductible
Each loan's interest split by where its money went (the trace). Estimates at today's balances and rates; the lender's 1098 or statements govern.
| Loan | Interest a year | Traced to investment | Investment | Home | Personal |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Home Mortgage | $26,319 est. | 0% | $0 | $26,319 | $0 |
| Rental Mortgage | $23,164 est. | 100% | $23,164 | $0 | $0 |
| Maple Family Trust line | $5,800 est. | 100% | $5,800 | $0 | $0 |
| Auto Loan | $537 est. | 0% | $0 | $0 | $537 |
Investment interest $28,964 est., of which 12% is deductible this year ($3,600, limited by net investment income); $25,363 carries forward.
| Line | Amount | Where it comes from |
|---|---|---|
| Investment interest (estimate) | $28,964 | Estimate: a full year at today's balances and rates, split by the trace (principal repaid pro rata) |
| Carryforward from prior years | $0 | Your figure on the Assumptions form |
| Interest received (NII) | $3,600 | Recorded in xutz for 2025 |
| Short-term gains (NII) | $0 | Recorded in xutz for 2025; net, floored at zero |
| Elected qualified dividends / long-term gains (NII) | $0 | Your figure on the Assumptions form |
| Dividends seen, treated as qualified (not NII) | $3,123 | xutz can't tell qualified from non-qualified dividends |
| Net investment income used | $3,600 | Sum of the NII lines above |
| Deduction allowed (estimate) | $3,600 | Lesser of investment interest + carryforward and NII |
| Carryforward to next year (estimate) | $25,363 | Investment interest + carryforward − deduction allowed |
| Estimated tax saved | $1,649 | Deduction × 45.8% ordinary rate |
| Home-purchase and improvement interest (estimate) | $26,319 | Estimate: a full year at today's balances and rates, split by the trace (principal repaid pro rata); $750,000 limit applies to debt after Dec 15, 2017 |

Basis-quality notes
What to check before relying on the figures above
- 1% of the market book (by value) has no cost basis on file, so later sales from it can't be estimated.
- Holdings worth $183,957 have no buy date, so a sale's term (short or long) can't be told until their lots are on file.
