Income from a Traditional IRA account is taxable as ordinary income, the tax rate depends on your tax bracket. The law requires IRA owners to start taking distributions from their account by age 70 1/2. Failure to withdraw the required amount will result in a penalty of up to 50% the required withdrawal. One solution is to convert the Traditional IRA into a Roth IRA (after paying taxes on income), which is not subject to mandatory withdrawals.

All earnings and deductible contributions become subject to tax on withdrawal. The tax rate is based on the individual's ordinary income tax rate at the time of withdrawal. If your tax bracket is lower when you receive a distribution than when your IRA earned income, you benefit from tax savings in addition to tax deferral on the earnings. Taxable distributions taken before you reach age 59? are subject to a 10% federal penalty tax. See similar questions...
