Tax is charged on the net gain ($2 in this case). If net gain is negative, $3000 from the loss can be used to offset other incomes in the same year. If more than $3000, then the extra loss can be carried forward to next year.

Compound interest/Computation

Interest earned not only on the original principal but also on the interest earned during previous interest periods, earning interest on interest. Use equation A=P(1 + r/(number of periods per year) )^(# of years x # of periods per year) Example: Principal=$1000, Interest Rate=6%, Compounded quarterly, amount after one year? 1)1000x.06x.25=15 1000 + 15 = 1015 2)1015x.06x.25=15.225 1015 + 15.225 = 1030.225 3)1030.225x.06x.25=15.453 1030.225 + 15.453 = 1045.68 4)1045.68x.06x.25=15.685 1045.68 + 15.685 = 1061.364 Amount at end of year = $1061.36 $61.36 is the compound interest
