How it works
The gain is proceeds minus cost basis; the rate applies only to a positive gain, and a loss produces no tax in this estimate.
Example
Selling for $42,000 with a $30,000 basis is a $12,000 gain and $1,800 of tax at 15%.
This tool is for estimation and education, not financial, tax, or legal advice.

Can I file with these figures?
