Hello, I don't have any wash sales. Per my original post with the details, my questions are:
I want to find out whether on Schedule D, I can use line 1a and 8a in conjunction with the other lines such as 8b, 9, and 10. Line 1a and 8a would be for the total gains/losses that are not shown on Form 8949 (from a brokerage account with basis reported to IRS, no adjustments), and line 8b, 9, and 10 would be items that are transferred from Form 8949. Or if I use Form 8949 for some of the gains/losses and transfers them into Schedule D of line 8b, 9 and 10, do I have to report all the gains/losses on Form 8949 first, and therefore cannot show any data on 1a and 8a of Schedule D?
Also, If I can use 1a and 8a to report the gains of the brokerage account, can I also combine the one stock sale of $100 due to the merger (long term covered securities with basis reported to IRS and no adjustments) into line 8a with the total of the brokerage acct, or do I need to report it separately on form 8949 box D, and then on Schedule D line 8b, even if there is no adjustment?
Thank you again for your help in advance.
