K-1 Sold interest - 1245 recapture - capital gain - how to enter in turbotax?

Can you also provide details on what amounts are on your final K-1 in Part III?

 

Thank you so much for your fast response!  Here it is.  In case it is important, this is a holdco that was spun off from the initial investment.  There were 4 buildings to be built.  One finished early and performed well so they spun it into a new company for itself last year and I sold my interest back to them a couple months later as I needed the cash.

 

Without anything else as requested in my prior comment:

• I believe your basis is $106,557 (20,131+8,190+2,578+75,658)
• Then your selling price is the $163,408
• Your ordinary income component, the Section 1245, is the $46,030 (this is depreciation recapture)
• Then the Section 1250 is the $10,822
• The above makes sense
  • Overall gain is $56,851 (163,408-106,557)
  • Ordinary Section 1245 is the $46,030
  • Section 1250 is the difference of $8,821 ($1 rounding)
  • The Section 1245 recapture is essentially a reclassification of capital gain to ordinary income
  • The Section 1250 is a limit on the capital gain rate; 25% instead of 20%

After reviewing the K-1, something just seems odd in the presentation, but attempting to analyze this in a forum such as this is difficult.

The only change after seeing the K-1, would be a few reductions to your basis:

• $106,557 - 1,083-808-1-5 = $104,660
• Overall gain is then $58,748; Ordinary $46,030 and 1250 is the 10,822
• Nothing else changes.

However, after reviewing and thinking about this, I am not sure what the ordinary amount of $2,578 and capital gain amount of $8,190 represent.  I was expecting to see these amounts on the K-1 as well, but they aren't there.

 

So that could reduce your basis to $93,892

Sincere apologies if I misunderstood what you were asking in your previous comment.  I thought you were asking to see the part III from their provided K-1 which is what my image was.

 

In any case, thank you so so much for what you provided.  I have entered it as such here:

 

 

This seems to make sense to my primitive brain.  Thank you again

Oh I see!  I would never have thought those items would impact these.  Thank you.  I made the suggested adjustments.

@fruehling make sure you read my response again as I added some additional comments.

THank you Rick. I have seen them.  Also, before posting here I read through a bunch of older posts similar to this subject and you were all over those as well.  I just want to say that your help here is so valuable not just to me, but thousands and thousands of people who read through them over the years.  People like you are what make me have faith in humanity.

Thank you for those kind words and you are welcome.

your total gain is 163408 less your basis of 20131 = 143277

the ordinary portion of the gain is the 1245 recapture and the other ordinary income

so 46030 +2578 = 48608 this should appear on line part II of form 4797 line 10

 

143277- 48608 leaves 94669 that consists of 8190 capital gain (assumed long term) 

10822 of section 1250 recapture and 75658 of 1231 gain (treated as capital gain)

sadly Tubotax can not properly handle the 1231 portion which should flow to form 4797

so to handle this increase basis from 20131 to 95789 which includes the 1231 gain

then on the actual k-1 worksheet enter the 75658 as 1231 gain so it flows to form 4797

 

so on the worksheet

sales price 163408

less basis of 95789 (includes 1231 gain reported on line 10 of k-1 - Turbotax has no other way of properly handling this - the 75658 then flows to form 4797 part  line 2)

gain = to 67519

ordinary income 48608

capital gain 19011 (includes 1250 recapture of 10822)

 

if you have unrecaptured 1231 losses from prior years (form 4797 line 8), the effect is to convert up to that amount of your current year 1231 capital gain to ordinary income. that's why it's important to have the 1231 gain flow to form 4797 rather than directly to schedule D.
