I plan to have a large capital gain in January 2008. Part of the reason I am waiting to sell is to defer the tax bill to April 2009.
Am I correct to assume that as long as I withhold and/or pay estimated taxes in 2008, equal to or greater than 110% of my 2007 tax, that I will not be subject to any penalties?
Obviously, I can withhold more in order to reduce the tax bill in April 2009 but I would rather earn interest on that money until I am required to pay.
