pWhen comparing interest rates on things like savings accounts, CDs, and bonds, it's a pretty simple process - the higher the interest rate, the higher the return. While that is simple enough, most of the time these types of investments are taxable. That means any interest you earn is taxed, which means your actual rate of return is lower than the interest rate./p pBut what about tax-exempt investments like municipal bonds? In cases like this, the interest that's generated may be exempt from federal, and in some cases, state income taxes.
