Sales Transactions

Proceeds from broker transactions

Use this statement to enter capital gains and losses. For complete instructions, click the link for the type of capital gain or loss you're entering:

Field Description
8949 Box Choose a code to indicate whether a sale was reported on a 1099-B and if basis was reported to the IRS. Once you choose a code, the sale will report either on Schedule D or on the 8949. For codes 1-3, you cannot choose a specific 8949 box; instead, UltraTax CS automatically determines whether it is short or long-term based on what you enter in the Date Acq'd and Date Sold columns and marks the appropriate box on Form 8949. You can also force short-term or long-term in the Force column. UltraTax CS defaults to 3, Box C treatment when this field is blank. To change the default behavior for all clients, choose Setup > 1040 Individual > Other Return Options button. Click the Return Presentation tab and make your selection in the Default for Screen B&D, Schedule for detail, Form 8949 transactions drop-down list.
1099B Errors Use this field to identify errors that were reported to the IRS on Form 1099B. You may need to make adjustments using the Adj to G/L column.
Type

Use this field to indicate the type of capital asset in the sale.

B - Business

Gain or loss is included in Schedule D, the NOL Worksheet as business capital gain or loss, in the income used to limit section 179 expense, and gain or loss is reported on Form 8582.

C - Collectible

Gain or loss is included in Form 8949, Form 4952, and in the NOL Worksheet as nonbusiness capital gain or loss. Gain or loss is also included in the 28% Rate Capital Gain Tax Worksheet.

Notes:
  • Adjustment code "C" will print in the Form 8949 Column (f) Codes from instructions. If there is no amount entered in the Adj to G/L field, a 0 (zero) will print in Column (g) Amount of Adjustment.
  • Items coded "C" will be taxed at 28% capital gains rates. Therefore, do not combine non-collectible sales with collectible sales when reporting multiple transactions on a single row.
  • The IRS does not allow collectibles to be reported directly on Schedule D, so code 4 should not be used in the 8949 Box field when code C = Collectible is selected in the Type field.

M - Money market (floating NAV)

Use type M to report capital gain/loss determined under the net asset value method (NAV) with respect to shares in a floating-NAV money market fund.

Notes:
  • Type M items will always be reported on Form 8949 Part I (short-term) with Box C checked, even if you enter long-term dates.
  • Only the Form 8949 description and gain/loss column will be completed, all other columns will remain blank.
  • UltraTax CS will append "(NAV)" to the description.

N - Nonbusiness

Gain or loss is included in Form 8949 and in the NOL Worksheet as nonbusiness capital gain or loss.

S - Section 1244 stock

Section 1244 losses transfer to Form 4797, Part II. Section 1244 gains are reported on Form 8949.

Notes:
  • Adjustment code "S" will print in the Form 8949 Column (f) Codes from instructions when the transaction is a loss. Section 1244 losses will be reported on Form 8949 with an amount equal to the ordinary gain reported on Form 4797.
  • Items coded "S" will be treated as 100% Section 1244 gains on Form 4797. Therefore, do not combine non-Section 1244 transactions with Section 1244 sales when reporting multiple transactions on a single row.

V - 1202 gain 100% excludable

Section 1202 provides for an exclusion of 100 percent of the gain on the sale or exchange of qualified small business stock.

Enter the amount before exclusion. There is no taxable gain for this exclusion, so these transactions do not affect the 28% Rate Capital Gain Tax Worksheet, Form 4952, or the nonbusiness capital gain in the NOL worksheet.

Notes:
  • When there is a Sales Price and Cost/Basis entered with a "V" in the Type column, UltraTax CS will update the Adj to G/L with the exclusion amount.
  • Adjustment code "Q" will print in the Form 8949 Column (f) Codes from instructions.

  • Adjustment code "Q" will print in the Form 8949 Column (f) Codes from instructions.
  • Items coded "X" will be treated as Section 1202 gain subject to 50% exclusion with the taxable amount subject to the 28% capital gains rates and the AMT 7% preference. Therefore, do not combine non-Section 1202 sales with Section 1202 gains subject to 50% exclusion when reporting multiple transactions on a single row.
