This is my first year with a standard brokerage account. All of my previous retirement income, other than pensions, came from IRA and Roth brokerage accounts.
The amount of taxable SSB is calculated and reported on form 1040 on line 6. The basis for how much is taxable is one half of your SSB plus basically all of your other income from lines 1 through 5. Dividends that you received from your investments are included.
Your Long and Short Term Capital Gains and Losses are then reported on line 7.
It looks like Capital Gains and Losses are not included in the taxation of your SSB calculations. Is this correct?
