As in the past, routine deposits or withdrawals (i.e., purchases or sales) of money market funds have not been deemed to be reportable transactions, and have not been shown, but again as in the past, the income from the money market funds during the Reporting Period has been shown, However, when 1 have made final sales, and initial purchases, of such money market funds, or have transferred money market funds from one account to another, I have shown such sales, and mitial purchases, us reportable “Sell” and “Buy” transactions. Transactions involving the reinvestment of mutual fund dividends and capital gains distributions are not shown as reportable transactions; however, the income from them is shown, In 2006 and prior years, in the case of the whole life insurance policies shown on Lines #78 through #82 of this report, the "Income" shown had been the mcrease in cash value in each policy. In 2007, | began to apply dividends on the policies to reduce policy loans, and since then the increase in cash value is no longer the same as the dividend on each policy. As in my reports for 2007 and thereafter, the "Income" shown is the dividend on each policy, and not the cash value increase, as the former is a better indication of the income on exch policy. The value shown for each policy is its net cash value, after subtracting outstanding loans from the gross cash value. Twelve equal monthly purchases of less than $1,000 each were made of shares of the Fidelity UNIQUE 2015 Portfolio in the 529 Plan. They are not individually shown, since investments that do not exceed $1,000 are not to be individually reported. The aggregate value of the plan at the end of the year, which is to be reported, reflects those purchases, and investment results with respect to them. With respect to Rollover IRA #3, at Morgan Stanley Smith Bumey, the income shown, us in past years, is before subtraction of account maintenance and advisory fees. The Brazoria County TX, Dallas TX, Anchorage AK and Los Angeles CA muni bonds shown on lines #80, #83, #84 and #85 of my amended report for 2014 were sold in 2013, and their sales were shown as such on my report for 2013. But they were not dropped when the reports for 2014 were filed, as explained in Part VIII of my Amended Report for 2014, in the paragraph beginning "Re fourth comment paragraph mm Comment Letter." The correction is made in this report, and they are thus deleted here. The New York State Thruway bonds shown on line #4 in Brokerage Account #1 were called before maturity, As the FDR software does not provide for separate transaction descriptions for bonds that were called before maturity, I have described them as “matured,” the closest substitute. My holding of Deutsche Intermed Term Tax Free Instut Class Mut Fund Shares shown on Line #16 in Brokerage Acct. #2 in this year's report is shown, properly, at the L level, Those shares were shown on each of my original and amended reports for 2014 as being held (and as bought on 9/23/14) at the M level. But the 2014 report erroneously showed them as having been purchased at the M level when it should have shown them as having been held, and acquired, at the L level The limited partnership shown on Line #52 made material distributions to me in 2015 und (after the close of the Reporting Period) 2016. 1t is obvious that un investment that could generate distributions at the "E" level has more than minimal value. But it is not publicly traded or otherwise valued. and, as in past years, only the book value of that investment is known, Thus the "J" Code, based on that book value, continues to be shown for my departure date, January 22, 2016, On June 18, 2015, a partial withdrawal of Fidelity Municipal Money Market shares shown on Line #4 was withdrawn from Brokerage Acct #1 and transferred to fund a newly created brokerage account, Brokerage Acct #4, where it was then invested in the Fidelity Treasury Money Market Fund mutual fund shares shown on Line #98, For ease of entry, and review, account name headers appear for accounts that are not aggregate ownership accounts. --- Source: Frix Law Library, https://www.frixlaw.com/law-library/disclosures/8596.
