45. IMO 668 - FOR AGENT USE ONLY Roth IRA Conversion Tax Consequences Example: Married Taxpayer, $100,000 AGI with taxable income of $80,000 (pre conversion net tax rate of 18%) converts $100,000 to Roth IRA. Prior to Conversion After Conversion AGI $ 100,000 $ 100,000 Taxable Income 80,000 180,000 Taxes Due (Fed) $ 14,870 $ 41,160 After conversion net tax rate of 23% but an increase in federal income taxes due of $26,290. Add in an additional 5% in state income taxes and the total additional taxes due would approach $ 32,000! __________________ How are the substantial additional taxes to be paid?
