Eaton Vance Parametric Investment Tax Calculator 2021 Update Now Available

BOSTON, March 24, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Eaton Vance Management (Eaton Vance) and Parametric Portfolio Associates LLC (Parametric) announced today the availability of the 2021 update of the Eaton Vance Parametric Investment Tax Calculator at eatonvance.com/mytaxrate and parametricportfolio.com/mytaxrate.  The Eaton Vance Parametric Investment Tax Calculator is designed to help U.S. individual taxpayers and their advisors better understand the income taxes they pay on their investment income and gains so they can make more-informed investment decisions. Based on user inputs of annual taxable income, tax filing status and place of residence, the calculator determines the total tax rate – including federal, state and local income taxes – that applies to an incremental dollar of an investor's in-state and out-of-state municipal bond interest income, U.S. Treasury interest income, other taxable interest income, qualified and non-qualified dividend income, net realized long-term and short-term capital gains, and qualified retirement plan withdrawals. 

The Eaton Vance Parametric Investment Tax Calculator provides comprehensive coverage of the federal, state, city, county and other local income taxes applicable to the investment income and gains of resident individual taxpayers across the 50 states and the District of Columbia.   The current update reflects available adjustments to federal, state and local income tax rates and income brackets for 2021, as well as changes in the treatment of taxable income and gains taking effect this year.  The updated calculator also enables investors to evaluate the potential impact on their taxes of the increases in federal income tax rates proposed by President Biden during his presidential campaign.

The Eaton Vance Parametric Investment Tax Calculator includes a series of tools to enable taxpaying investors and their advisors to:

• compare the after-tax yields of in-state municipal bonds versus out-of-state municipal bonds, U.S. Treasuries and fully taxable income investments (see eatonvance.com/yield or parametricportfolio.com/yield);
• evaluate selling concentrated stock positions versus diversifying on a tax-deferred basis (see eatonvance.com/concentrated or parametricportfolio.com/concentrated); and
• analyze the impact of changes in interest rates on the returns of laddered bond investments and the potential tax alpha from harvesting capital losses in a rising interest rate environment for a laddered municipal bond portfolio (see eatonvance.com/ladders or parametricportfolio.com/ladders).   

"The Eaton Vance Parametric Investment Tax Calculator is a uniquely valuable resource for advisors and their clients seeking to better understand how taxes affect their individual investment returns," said Thomas E. Faust Jr., Chairman of Morgan Stanley Investment Management. "With potentially significant changes in investment taxes on the horizon, this is an especially important time for investors to know their personal tax situation."

"Parametric is pleased to make the Investment Tax Calculator and the associated suite of tax tools available to investors across America," said Brian Langstraat, Chief Executive Officer of Parametric. "As a longtime leader in customized, tax-efficient investment solutions, we welcome this opportunity to deepen understanding of the importance of investment taxes."
