Taxes paid for withdraw from investment account

What taxes will I pay if I make a $5,000 withdraw from my investment account?

Your combined income from all sources determines the tax rate.   However; if you investment is long-term there are reduced rates.   Short-term gains come from the sale of property owned one year or less and are typically taxed at your maximum tax rate, as high as 37% in 2024 and 2025.  Long-term gains come from the sale of property held more than one year and are typically taxed at either 0%, 15%, or 20% for 2024 and 2025.

In your example of $5,000 at say 20% the Federal tax would be about $1,000 not considering other factors including state taxes if applicable.
