DO111 9-10-11 100 $ 9,000
EA002 8-13-04 100 $6,000
Homework Answers
The tax payer should instruct the broker to sell the shares of “CR642”. The purchase cost of the 100 shares of “CR642” is 5000 which is less than the purchases prices of the other two stocks and the holding period is long term.
Long term gain - $7500 – $5000 = $2500.
Tax consequence: If taxable income of tax payer during the year fall under 10% to 15%, the long term gain will be taxed at 0%. If taxable income of tax payer during the year fall under 25% to 35%, the long-term gain will be taxed at 15%.
