related regulations. Special rules for determining basis are  
provided in sections in subchapters C, K, O, and P of the  
Code. These rules may apply to the:

sales price, or that the corporation got from another  
taxpayer who had received it in a similar way, if the  
corporation's basis is determined by reference to the  
previous owner's basis.  
Attach an explanation if the corporation uses a basis  
other than actual cost of the property. See the instructions  
for Form 8949, column (e).  
A RIC's or REIT's basis in an asset it held on January 1,  
2001, for which it made an election to recognize any gain  
under section 311 of the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, is  
the asset's closing market price or fair market value  
(FMV), whichever applies, on the date of the deemed sale  
and reacquisition, whether the deemed sale resulted in a  
gain or unallowed loss.  
See section 852(f) for the treatment of certain load  
charges incurred in acquiring stock in a RIC with a  
reinvestment right.  
Gain from installment sales. If the corporation sold  
property at a gain and it will receive a payment in a tax  
year after the year of sale, it must generally report the sale  
on the installment method unless it elects not to. However,  
the installment method may not be used to report sales of  
stock or securities traded on an established securities  
market.  
Use Form 6252 to report the sale on the installment  
method. Also use Form 6252 to report any payment  
received during the tax year from a sale made in an earlier  
year that was reported on the installment method. Enter  
gain from the installment sales on Schedule D, line 4 or  
line 12, as applicable. See the instructions for Form 6252.

certain musical compositions or copyrights in musical  
works it sold or exchanged. See section 1221(b)(3) and  
Pub. 550 for details.  
Capital Losses  
For a corporation, capital losses are allowed in the current  
tax year only to the extent of capital gains. A net capital  
loss is carried back 3 years and forward up to 5 years as a  
short-term capital loss. Carry back a capital loss to the  
extent it doesn’t increase or produce a net operating loss  
in the tax year to which it is carried. Foreign expropriation  
capital losses cannot be carried back, but are carried  
forward up to 10 years. A net capital loss of a regulated  
investment company (RIC) incurred in tax years beginning  
before December 23, 2010, is carried forward up to 8  
years. There is no limit on the number of tax years a RIC is  
allowed to carry forward a net capital loss incurred in tax  
years beginning after December 22, 2010.  
To elect out of the installment method, report the full  
amount of the gain on Form 8949 for the year of the sale  
on a return filed by the due date (including extensions). If  
the original return was filed on time without making the  
election, the corporation may make the election on an  
amended return filed no later than 6 months after the  
original due date (excluding extensions). Write “Filed  
pursuant to section 301.9100-2” at the top of the amended  
return.  
For more information about corporate capital losses,  
see Capital Losses in Pub. 542, Corporations.

corporation sold or exchanged a qualified District of  
Columbia Enterprise Zone (DC Zone) asset acquired after  
1997 and before 2012, and held for more than 5 years, it  
may exclude any qualified capital gain that the corporation  
would otherwise include in income. The exclusion applies  
to an interest in, or property of, certain businesses  
operating in the District of Columbia.

Gain on the constructive sale of certain appreciated  
financial positions. Generally, if the corporation holds  
an appreciated financial position in stock or certain other  
interests, it may have to recognize gain (but not loss) if it  
enters into a constructive sale (such as a “short sale  
against the box”). See Pub. 550.  
Gain from certain constructive ownership transac-  
tions. Gain in excess of the underlying net long-term  
capital gain the corporation would have recognized if it  
had held a financial asset directly during the term of a  
derivative contract must be treated as ordinary income.  
See section 1260. If any portion of the constructive  
ownership transaction was open in any prior year, the  
corporation may have to pay interest. See section 1260(b)  
for details, including how to figure the interest. Include the  
interest as an additional tax on Form 1120, Schedule J,  
line 9g (or the applicable line for other income tax returns).  
Gain on disposition of market discount bonds. In  
general, if the corporation realizes a capital gain upon the  
disposition of a market discount bond, the gain is  
recharacterized as interest income to the extent of  
accrued market discount as of the date of disposition. See  
sections 1276 through 1278 and Pub. 550 for more  
information on market discount. See the Instructions for  
Form 8949 for detailed information about how to report the

Exclusion of gain from qualified community assets.  
If the corporation sold or exchanged a qualified  
community asset acquired after 2001 and before 2010, it  
may be able to exclude any qualified capital gain that the  
corporation would otherwise include in income. The  
exclusion applies to an interest in, or property of, certain  
renewal community businesses.

Gain or loss on distribution of property in complete  
liquidation. Generally, gain or loss is recognized on  
property distributed in a complete liquidation. Treat the  
property as if it had been sold at its FMV. An exception to  
this rule applies for liquidations of certain subsidiaries.  
See sections 336 and 337 for more information and other  
exceptions to the general rules.  
Gain or loss on certain asset transfers to a tax-ex-  
empt entity. A taxable corporation that transfers all or  
substantially all of its assets to a tax-exempt entity or  
converts from a taxable corporation to a tax-exempt entity  
in a transaction other than a liquidation must generally  
recognize gain or loss as if it had sold the assets  
transferred at their FMV. For details and exceptions, see  
Regulations section 1.337(d)-4.  
Gain or loss on an option to buy or sell property. See  
sections 1032 and 1234 for the rules that apply to a  
purchaser or grantor of an option or a securities futures  
contract (as defined in section 1234B). See Pub. 550 for  
details.  
Gain or loss from a short sale of property. Report the  
gain or loss if the property used to close the short sale is  
considered a capital asset in the hands of the taxpayer.  
Report any short sale on Form 8949 in the year the sale  
closes.  
If a short sale closed in 2023 but you did not get a 2023  
Form 1099-B (or substitute statement) for it because you  
entered into it before 2011, report it on Form 8949 in Part I  
with box C checked or Part II with box F checked  
(whichever applies). In column (a), enter (for example)  
“100 sh. XYZ Co. —2010 short sale closed.Fill in the

section 1.1275-4(b) and Pub. 1212, Guide to Original  
Issue Discount (OID), for more information on contingent  
payment debt instruments subject to the noncontingent  
bond method.  
See the Instructions for Form 8949 for information on  
how to report the gain or loss.  
At-risk limitations (section 465). If the corporation sold  
or exchanged a capital asset used in an activity to which  
the at-risk rules apply, combine the gain or loss on the  
sale or exchange with the profit or loss from the activity. If  
the result is a net loss, complete Form 6198, At-Risk  
Limitations. Report any gain from the capital asset on  
Form 8949, Schedule D, and Form 6198.  
Loss from a sale or exchange between the corpora-  
tion and a related person. Except for distributions in  
complete liquidation of a corporation, no loss is allowed  
from the sale or exchange of property between the  
corporation and certain related persons. See section 267.  
Loss from a wash sale. A wash sale occurs if the  
corporation acquires (by purchase or exchange), or has a  
contract or option to acquire, substantially identical stock  
or securities within 30 days before or after the date of a  
sale or exchange that results in a loss. The corporation  
cannot deduct a loss from a wash sale of stock or  
securities (including contracts or options to acquire or sell  
stock or securities) unless the corporation is a dealer in  
stock or securities and the loss was sustained in a  
transaction made in the ordinary course of the  
corporation's trade or business. For more information on  
wash sales, see section 1091 and Pub. 550.  
The wash sale rules don't apply to a redemption of  
shares in a floating-NAV (net asset value) money market  
fund.  
Report the transaction as the corporation otherwise  
would on Form 8949, Part I or II (depending on how long  
the corporation owned the stock or securities). Check the  
appropriate box. Enter “W” in column (f). Enter the  
nondeductible loss as a positive number in column (g).  
Complete all remaining columns. See the Instructions for  
Form 8949.  
Gain on certain short-term federal, state, and munici-  
pal obligations (other than tax-exempt obligations).  
If a short-term governmental obligation (other than a  
tax-exempt obligation) that is a capital asset is acquired at  
an acquisition discount, then, on any gain realized, a  
portion is treated as ordinary income and any remaining  
balance is treated as a short-term capital gain. See  
section 1271.  
Loss from securities that are capital assets that be-  
come worthless during the year. Except for securities  
held by a bank, treat the loss as a capital loss as of the  
last day of the tax year. See section 582 for the rules on  
the treatment of securities held by a bank.  
Losses limited after an ownership change or acquisi-  
tion. If the corporation has undergone an “ownership  
change” as defined in section 382(g), section 383 may  
limit the amount of capital gains that may be offset by  
prechange capital losses. In addition, section 382(h) may  
in some cases limit capital losses recognized after an  
ownership change when the loss accrued before the  
ownership change. Also, if a corporation acquires control  
of another corporation (or acquires its assets in a  
reorganization),  
Contingent payment debt instruments. If the  
corporation sells a taxable contingent payment debt  
instrument subject to the noncontingent bond method at a  
gain, the gain is ordinary income (interest income), even if  
the corporation holds the debt instrument as a capital  
asset. If the corporation sells a taxable contingent  
payment debt instrument subject to the noncontingent  
bond method at a loss, its loss is an ordinary loss to the  
extent of its prior original issue discount (OID) inclusions  
on the debt instrument. If the debt instrument is a capital  
asset, treat any loss that is more than the corporation's  
prior OID inclusions as a capital loss. See Regulations  
section 384 may limit the amount of recognized built-in  
capital gains that may be offset by preacquisition capital  
losses.  
Loss from the sale or exchange of capital assets of  
an insurance company taxable under section 831.  
-4-  
Capital losses of a casualty insurance company are  
deductible to the extent that the assets were sold to meet  
abnormal insurance losses or to provide for the payment  
of dividend and similar distributions to policyholders. See  
section 834(c)(6).  
Gains and losses from partnerships, estates, or  
trusts. Report the corporation's share of capital gains  
and losses from investments in partnerships, estates, or  
trusts on the appropriate Part of Form 8949. Report a net  
short-term capital gain (loss) on Part I with box C checked.  
Report a net long-term capital gain (loss) on Part II with  
box F checked. See the Instructions for Form 8949.  
See section 1400Z for more details on QOFs and  
special rules. Also, see IRS.gov/credits-deductions/  
How to report. Report the eligible gain as the  
corporation normally would on Form 8949 and  
Schedule D. See the Instructions for Form 8949 for how to  
report the deferral. The corporation will also need to  
attach Form 8997 to its tax return annually until it disposes  
of the QOF investment. For more information, see Form  
8997 and its instructions.

investing in eligible property that is located in a Qualified  
Opportunity Zone.  
See How To Complete Form 8949, Columns (f) and (g) in  
the Instructions for Form 8949 for details about possible  
adjustments to the corporation's gain or loss.  
If the corporation chooses to report these transactions  
on lines 1a and 8a, do not report them on Form 8949.  
Also, the corporation does not need to attach a statement  
to explain the entries on lines 1a and 8a.  
Figure gain or loss on each line. Subtract the cost or  
other basis in column (e) from the proceeds (sales price)  
in column (d). Enter the gain or loss in column (h). Enter  
negative amounts in parentheses.  
Eligible gain. Gain that is eligible to be deferred if it is  
invested in a QOF includes any amount treated as a  
capital gain for federal income tax purposes.  
Example 1—Basis reported to the IRS. The  
corporation received a Form 1099-B reporting the sale of  
-5-  
 
stock held for 3 years, showing proceeds (in box 1d) of  
$6,000 and cost or other basis (in box 1e) of $2,000. Box  
12 is checked, meaning that basis was reported to the  
IRS. The corporation does not need to make any  
adjustments to the amounts reported on Form 1099-B or  
enter any codes. This was the corporation's only 2023  
transaction. Instead of reporting this transaction on Form  
8949, the corporation can enter $6,000 on Schedule D,  
line 8a, column (d); $2,000 in column (e); and $4,000  
($6,000 - $2,000) in column (h).  
If the corporation had a second transaction that was the  
same except that the proceeds were $5,000 and the basis  
was $3,000, combine the two transactions. Enter $11,000  
($6,000 + $5,000) on Schedule D, line 8a, column (d);  
$5,000 ($2,000 + $3,000) in column (e); and $6,000  
($11,000 - $5,000) in column (h).  
checked, meaning that basis was reported to the IRS.  
However, the basis shown in box 1e is incorrect. Do not  
report this transaction on line 1a or line 8a. Instead, report  
the transaction on Form 8949. See the instructions for  
Form 8949, columns (f), (g), and (h). Complete all  
necessary pages of Form 8949 before completing line 1b,  
2, 3, 8b, 9, or 10 of Schedule D.  
Lines 1b, 2, 3, 8b, 9, and 10—Transactions reported  
on Form 8949. Complete Form 8949 before completing  
Schedule D, lines 1b, 2, 3, 8b, 9, and 10. Enter on  
Schedule D, lines 1b, 2, and 3, respectively, the short-term  
totals from all Forms 8949, Part I, line 2, with box A, B, or  
C, respectively, checked. Enter on Schedule D, lines 8b, 9,  
and 10, respectively, the long-term totals from all Forms  
8949, Part II, line 2, with box D, E, or F, respectively,  
checked.  
Example 2—Basis not reported to the IRS. The  
corporation received a Form 1099-B showing proceeds (in  
box 1d) of $6,000 and cost or other basis (in box 1e) of  
$2,000. Box 12 is not checked, meaning that basis was  
not reported to the IRS. Do not report this transaction on  
line 1a or line 8a. Instead, report the transaction on Form  
8949. Complete all necessary pages of Form 8949 before  
completing line 1b, 2, 3, 8b, 9, or 10 of Schedule D.  
Line 6. Enter any unused capital loss carryover. Attach a  
statement showing how the carryover was computed.  
Line 14. Enter the total capital gain distributions paid by a  
RIC or REIT during the year, regardless of how long the  
corporation owned stock in the RIC or REIT.  
Also enter any amount received from a RIC or REIT that  
qualifies as a distribution in complete liquidation under  
section 332(b) and is designated by the RIC or REIT as a  
capital gain distribution. See section 332(c).  
Example 3—Adjustment. The corporation received a  
Form 1099-B showing proceeds (in box 1d) of $6,000 and  
cost or other basis (in box 1e) of $2,000. Box 12 is  
-6-
