Hello,
Would you please tell me how much capital gains tax I would pay this year if I hypothetically earn $100,000 in profits trading commodities as of December 31 2007 and also this year I give $100,000 to my Church or another Christian ministry before December 31 2007. Using the above scenario, I basically would have made $100,000 and subsequently given $100,000 away. I'm not sure how this scenario differs from the normal 'cut and dry' percentages of capital gains I'm used to paying. Thanks for all your help.
