Retirement tax questions

@Anonymous_  Yes, I read it. 

 

Lets assume, I have $26,920 profit per 1099-B with $2,387 expenses, and $2K home office deduction. 

 

On Sch C, I entered, $2,387 expenses. Then Form 8829, Line 8, shows $24,533 ($26,920 from Other income including Schedule D and Form 4797 C1 - $2,387 expenses ).

 

My Sch C, Line 31, Net profit or (loss) has -$4,387? Did I miss something?

 

Line 8, on 1040 is also -$4,387

 

I didn't see any adjustment to calc'ed gain on 8829 as per your screenshot. Its for 2020 taxes, looks similar to Form 8829 screenshot
