Yardley CPA Posted March 29, 2019 Report Posted March 29, 2019 Newer client rented a room in his home starting in 2014. That year, HRB prepared his return and set-up a Schedule E. Purchase price of the home was $220,000. HRB shows rental basis of the room as 34,000, about $15% of the purchase price. Client has now sold the home for $400,000. What amount would be attributed to the "Rented Room?" 60,000 (400,000 x 15%)? Quote
FDNY Posted March 29, 2019 Report Posted March 29, 2019 I was going to say form 8949 for sale of principal residence and use worksheet for depreciation but with sch E that won't work, so I think your calculation works. Any land included? 1 1 Quote
