Your u. 5. Income Tax
(This Is No. 40 of q Series. J

The tax laws provide a special set
Fof rules for figuring the gain or loss
resulting from the sale or exchange
Of securities and other property
which is held for profit or invest
ment. Although these rules are ex-
tremely technical, only a compara-
lively small percentage Of taxpayers
are affected by them.
Persons having this type Of trans
actions must fill in a separate form
called Schedule B, and file it along
with the tax return Form 1040.
Short Form 1040A may not be used
by these taxpayers.
These transactions include gain
or loss from the sale or exchange Of
property held for profit or invest
ment, or used in the taxpayers
business. but not part Of the stock
in trade. Such transactions may
occur in real estate, or other tangi-
BILE property, such as store fixtures
or plant machinery and equipment,
or such personal possessions as a
car or household goods.
The law requires gains or losses
to be reported according to the ma
ture of the transaction, and two
separate entries are provided in
item of Form l040 for this purpose:
ta) net gain (or loss) from sale or
exchange Of capital assets, (b) net
gain (or loss) from sale or exchange
Of property other than capital
assets.
A distinction is made between cap
ital assets and "other than capital
assets" The latter includes pri-
marily property subject to the allow
ance for depreciation, and land used
in the trade or business and held
for more than six months where
losses from sale or involuntary con-
version Of such property exceed the
gains. If gains from the sale or
involuntary conversion of property
subject to the allowance for depre-
citation and land used in the trade
or business, and held for more than
six months, exceed the losses, the
transactions are treated in the same
manner as a sale of capital assets,
and if the gains do not exceed the
losses, they are treated in the same
manner as sale of ordinary assets
(other than capital assets.
On property classified as "other
than capital assets" the full amount
OF the gain Cor loss) from sale or
exchange is taken into the income
account in item Sob of the return
Form 1040, and an explanation Of
the transaction is shown in Sched-
ule B..
1t should be noted that in the case
OF sale or exchange of property. such
as the taxpayers residence, auto
mobile, house furnishings, or jewelry,
gains must be taken into income
but losses are not allowed to be so
taken.
