TP received 1099B for 12044 sale of above 1515 shr stock in 4/2007. TP also received 1099-Div for 2a 5561, 2b 1628, and 3 13452. After coming up with cast basis of 15150 minus nondividend distb of 13452 she is left with adj cost basis of 1698. HOWEVER, the step 3 on CNL worksheet gets me lost. Merger consideration is 12044 minus the 1698 and says a tax loss of 10346.
Does the client have a loss or a gain to report on the D. I am very tired and all the clients are very crabby so thanks for any help.
