Calculation of tax savings from 1031 exchange

Hi everyone, 

Do my calculations look correct on the potential tax savings I would realize ($116,238.98!) if I did a 1031 exchange? Thanks in advance.

Hi Stacy, looking at your numbers, I come up with the following:

Dep Recap is 25% on 56,631.30 = 14,157.83

Fed Cap Gain is 20% on the remainder of the gain, 20% on 126,739.90 = 25,347.97

State Gain is 7.25% on 183,371.20 = 13,294.41

NIIT is 3.8% on 183,371.20 = 6,968.111

    No. Your depreciation recapture is only a 5% premium to your federal rate (15 or 20%) on what has been depreciated. 

    If you’d like, I have an excel model I can share with you if you submit your info.

    @Stacy Tring, Kudos to you for those calculations.  You did some good spread sheet work.  But you're double dippin your tax in several cases.  It's not as bad as you think.  We have a calculator on our website that can help you compare the 1031 vs no 1031 options.  @Jon Taylor, is also awesome at walking you through the calcs.
