Business & farm

What happens here is there was a sale of depreciable property.  All of the sale is reported on other lines; capital gain, Section 1231, etc.

Part of what was sold was what is known as Section 1250 property, real property.  The law says that this property has a capital gain tax rate of 25% and that is why is it showing up on the capital gain (Sch D) worksheet.  This will apply the correct rate for that portion of the property sold.
