How much tax does olympic winner pay on gold medal?
That will be based on their total income for the year, as well as the country. The US Olympic committee pays an award bonus of $25,000 for a gold medal. That is taxable income. Someone like Michael Phelps with a huge income from endorsements is going to pay a higher tax rate than someone getting a single medal at their first Olympics. With no other income, a medal winner would probably pay less than $2,000 of it in taxes. Someone like Phelps could pay as much as 40%, but the reality is that a good tax accountant will take advantage of the appropriate methods of reducing taxes.
