Instructions and Help about IRS 1120 - Schedule D
After reporting small business or self-employment income on Schedule C report any capital gains or losses on Schedule D a lot of people won't have any capital gains transactions but if you sell securities or other capital assets held outside a retirement account you'll have to fill out Schedule D and don't worry the IRS has devised a system to help remind you of the need to report capital gains transactions if you sell any securities your broker or mutual fund should send you a 1099 B which lists the proceeds of the sale since the 1099 B lists the proceeds of the sale you'll have to include at least the gross proceeds on Schedule D however the 1099 B currently doesn't show the actual gain or loss you realized for that you're largely on your own when it comes to capital gains calculations your so-called basis in the property is important in its simplest sense your basis is the cost of the property, but your basis can be adjusted up or down depending on circumstances let's say you invested one thousand dollars in a mutual fund whose shares were selling for $10 your one thousand dollar investment gives you 100 shares further assume that you made this investment in early January the fund moved up over the year and on December 15th of the same year the fund distributed to you $60 in dividends you reinvested these dividends in five shares of the fund when the fund was $12 a share a few days later on December 20th you sold all your holdings in the fund because you thought the market would go down assume your selling price was $12 a share so your sale of 105 shares at $12 a share yielded 1260 dollars your mutual fund then sends you a 1099 B which shows 1260 dollars in gross proceeds so what's your total gain on the sale you invested $1,000 back in January, so your reportable gain is 260 dollars right wrong your reportable gain is actually only $200 not two hundred and sixty dollars that's because the $60 in reinvested dividends are added to the basis of your holdings like any additional purchase, so your cost basis in the mutual fund is the original $1000 investment plus the $60 in reinvested dividends or one thousand and sixty dollars when you subtract this from your gross proceeds of one thousand two hundred and sixty dollars you get a net gain of two hundred dollars and in case you're wondering you do have to pay taxes on the $60 in distributed dividends that you received the $60 in dividends are reported on a 1099 — div and our taxed on Schedule B so if you reinvest your mutual fund dividends but don't adjust your cost basis up you'll wind up paying taxes twice on that dividend you'll pay ordinary income taxes once when the dividend is distributed and capital gains taxes once when you sell if you don't adjust your cost basis up unfortunately calculating your capital gains can get difficult the example I gave was simple but imagine if your mutual fund makes monthly distributions, and you buy and sell chunks of the fund during the year determining...
