With Compound Interest Canada Savings Bonds

Declare, Save Mave

By MIKE GRENBY
(Based: at The Vancouver

Sun, Mike Grenby writes. a>.

nationally-syndicated column
on ae finance.) '
realize, you might
aneibaneus by declaring
inedme: you!don't actually | ye

“ceive?;

Only rarely does the ordi-
nary individual get much of a
choice when it ‘comes to income
tax planning.

‘One of those rare instances
involves Compound Interest
Canada Savings Bonds.

Here's how it works (the
figures have been simplified in
the following hypothetical ex-
amples): 1
. John Jones’ buys Com-
pound Interest Bonds which
yield $400 interest a year.

Because the interest. com-
pounds—it's left “in the bond”
and not paid out—John doesn’t
actually get his $400 each year.

And so he doesn’t even
think about income tax—until
his bonds mature at the end of
10 years.

He collects his $4,000 accu-
mulated interest and, to his
shock, suddenly realizes he has
to declare that $4,000 as income

‘and probably pay tax on it,

Sam Smith buys the same
bonds, with interest compound-
ing at $400 a year.

But Sam declares this $400
as interest income each year—
even though he doesn’t collect
the money.

-Because of the $1,000 in-
terest-dividend deduction on
the tax return, he pays little or
no tax (depending on, what.
other interest-dividend income
he has).' :

Inthe 10th year, the bonds
mature and Sam collects $4,000
interest income. But as usual,
all he declares is $400, having

already. declared $8,600. over
the previous nine years,

John declares all his $4,000
bond interest’in one year, and
pays.quite a bit of it to the tax

year over io ‘years, and pays
little or no tax.

John, Jones’ “approach is
called. ‘the’ ensh":method of
reporting income: You pay tax
when you get the cash,

* Sam. Smith's, approach is
called the accrual method of
reporting income: You pay .tax
as your income accrues (builds
up), even though you don't
actually get the money at the
time.

This year, ‘for the first
time, the government is offer-
ing two types of . Canada
Savings Bonds:: Regular Inter-
est Bonds and Compound Inter-
est Bonds. © |:

If:you buy Regular Inter-

est Bonds, you'll be’ sent your ©

interest each year, or you can
have it deposited directly into
your bank account.

Either way, you have no
choice as far as income tax
goes: You'll have to declare the
interest the year you get iti

But if you buy the Com-
pound Interest Bonds, then you
have the choice‘as to how you'll

declare. the interest ‘income—

either each year (2s Sam Smith

did) ‘or all in the last: year | (as :

John Jones did).

How, do‘ you decide which

approach is right for you?

You must, look at what:

your. tax: bracket is ‘now.and
‘what it will:probably: be when

the . bond* matures and‘-you -

collect the accumulated inter-
est,

Example: Bill: Brown‘ ex-
pects to be earning at least as

much when his bond matures as
he is now. He collects a couple
of hundred dollars in interest
and dividend income a year. *
He should probably. declare

interest in the ‘year the bond

matures.

But Barbara Black will not
be. working © the year her
Compound Interest Bonds ma-
ture, Perhaps she'll be at home
raising a’ family, or perhaps
she'll have retired. -

In summary, ‘the “rule: is

when your bonds mature, you

‘shoul proba bably” declare . the
