Question 1: Calculating the net capital loss or net capital gain of the client in the current year
Capital gain and capital loss are calculated for estimating the value of investment or fixed assets. Valuation of capital gain or capital loss may include value of patent property, gif, car or some other fixed assets. Taxation rate to be deducted from capital gain is 50%. The reason behind this is that client is a resident of Australia. Capital loss of one year is carried forward in another year. The amount can be deducted from another year also. However, Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allocates lower tax rate in case of long-term capital gain and allocates higher tax rate in case of short-term capital gains. However, taxation form 1040 treats both short-term and loss term capital gains equally (irs.gov, 2018).
