Fill Irs Form 13844 Modules 2024

Welcome to module 6 of the Tax Lair Pro basic income tax preparation course. In this module, we'll go over income part 4 for filing 2018 tax returns. First, we'll discuss Form 4797 - Sales of Business Property. Hopefully, the only time you should encounter this form is if a client sells a piece of residential rental property. The gain on the sale of the rental house is reported on Form 4797 and Schedule D. Residential rental property is considered section 1250 property, which is entered on part 3 of Form 4797. The gain calculated in part 3 then transfers back over to part 1 of Form 4797, from the back to the front. The gain reported in part 1 will then transfer to Schedule D as a long-term capital gain.

This equals $72,300 gain on the sale. So, Mr. Amendola must recapture the $12,300 depreciation that he took as a deduction. As we said, the gain transfers from part 3 to part 1 of the 4797. The gain is then reported on Schedule D, then...
