As s u mp t i o n s
The following assumptions have been used in preparing this analysis. Since the results of this analysis are
very sensitive to the assumptions, it is important to review them on a regular basis.
TAX ASSUMPTIONS

Current State of Residence Texas Texas
This plan uses the income and estate tax rates and exemption levels from the Tax Cut and Jobs Act (TCJA)
of 2017 and assumes that the tax rates from the TCJA will sunset as the law currently is legislated and revert
to the tax rates in effect in 2017.
The assumed taxes on your income in this plan are calculated by applying bracketed federal and state taxes.
The method of calculation considers federal and state tax rates, filing status, exemptions, certain federal tax
deductions which you have supplied, tax credits, gifts to charity, alternative minimum tax (AMT), Social
Security tax and Medicare tax, using publicly available information from the current IRS Form 1040, and
considering future tax rates when those are known from currently enacted legislation.
This plan makes the following assumptions about expected rates of return, and component return, for
investment asset classes. These component return assumptions are used where there is different tax
treatment for different types of investment returns. The assumed rates of return are geometric mean returns,
which are lower than arithmetic mean returns:
