Investor sells CW at VND 2,000/CW and earns VND2,000,000.

4. Reference examples:

Before receiving dividends in stocks and bonus shares, Investor A has 5,000 shares of ABC in his account.

After that, Investor A receives the distribution of dividend rights in shares: 4,000 shares of ABC and the allocation of bonus stock rights: 2,000 shares of ABC.

In total, Investor A has 11,000 shares of ABC in his account, including 6,000 shares subjected to capital investment tax. When Investor A sells ABC shares, the tax on income from capital investment and transfer tax on shares will be calculated as follows:

Investor sells (transfers shares)

Amount of shares to subjected to capital investment tax at the beginning of the period

PIT from investment

PIT from transfers shares

Amount of CP to bear residual capital investment tax

1st time

4,000 shares price VND11,000 (Selling price > par value)

6,000 shares

(4,000 x 10,000) x5%= VND2,000,000

(4,000 x 11,000) x 0.1% = VND44,000

6,000 – 4,000
= 2,000 CP

2nd time

2,000 shares for VND8,000 (Selling price < par value)

2,000 shares

(2,000 x 8,000) x5% = VND800,000

(2,000 x 8,000) x 0.1% = VND16,000

2,000 – 2,000 = 0 CP

3rd time

5,000 shares price VND12,000

0

0 đ

(5,000 x 12,000) x 0.1% = VND60,000

0 CP
