Why the short-term loss is not able to offset the long-term gain in the trust?


I think there is a math error here somewhere because the long-term and short-term gains in the trust would be exactly offset by the short-term loss in the trust; the net gain/loss for the trust would be zero. 

 

The short-term gain in your account of $10,000 would not be offset by any loss in the trust.
