Individual D is in the %35 tax bracket. This year he executee the following transactions:
Sale of shares of xyz:

Sale of land held for investment :

sale price 5000, adjusted bais 7000, holding period 23 mos.
Sale of personal jewelry:

I don’t even know where to begin. This is a homework question but it isn’t graded. We are going over them in class, but I would at least like to know how to do it because I don’t want to fall behind, so…I would really like it if you could tell me how to do it, rather than just give me an answer?
Thank you!!
And please, if I need a ‘schedule’ to do this, let me know which one(s).
