Taking Dividends from Stocks

As a company's earnings grow, its investors may benefit from a shareholder yield that boosts the value of the original investment. This article states that to maximize the benefits of this yield, the investor should select an investment option based not only on the quantity and probability of the cash flow generated by the investment but also on the manner in which a company returns shareholder yield to its investors.

The Diversification of Mutual Funds

Financial asset yields can rise rapidly only to fall precipitously. A diversified portfolio that is re-balanced systematically is more likely to decrease the investor's exposure to market risk while consolidating and protecting your long-term gains. This article discusses how mutual funds accomplish this goal, namely by pooling the savings of many investors and making a collective investment in a diversified portfolio of securities.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Equity Capital

Business management and the board of directors determine a company's capital structure, which usually consists of both debt and equity capital.

Salary Tax vs. Commission Tax

Many workers receive salaries only, so no portion of their pay is variable. But some C-suite executives and senior leaders have as much as 60 to 80 percent of their pay tied to performance. Still others, such as those who work in sales, have variable elements in their compensation packages as well. Some of these individuals "work on commission." This article discusses how commissions are taxed and at what rates.

What Are Regular Shares?

A credit union provides the services of a community bank, but it does so at a lower cost. This is possible because the profits that a credit union earns are returned to its members in the form of lower fees. These services are provided to share account holders whose partial ownership in the credit union is represented by share accounts of different types, including the regular share savings account. This article discusses the regular share account.

Social Security is a central pillar in the retirement plan of millions of Americans. But in 1982 and again in 2020, to pay retirees the benefits they are due, the program must draw down on its assets.
