Get your taxes done using TurboTax
Yes the 'wash sale' would be removed because you sold everything on the same day. Once all stocks included in a wash sale are sold, the full loss is allowed.
When you enter the sale you should use the full purchase price and sales price without any limitation for wash sale.
Wash Sale Rule Defined:
- A wash sale occurs when an investor sells or trades a security at a loss, and within 30 days before or after, buys another one that is substantially similar.
- It also happens if the individual sells the security at a loss, and their spouse or a company they control buys a substantially similar security within 30 days.
- The wash-sale rule prevents taxpayers from deducting a capital loss on the sale against the capital gain.
Affect on Cost Basis:
- The loss that occurs on a wash sale is added to the cost basis of the shares purchased that created the wash sale.
- When all shares are sold and there is no repurchase, that increased cost basis will be used in full and used to determine gain or loss.
