2. Sue and Tim are married taxpayers in the 33% marginal tax bracket. In 2015, they sold common stock shares, which they held for more than 40 months, for a capital gain of $3,800. They also sold some technology stock for a long-term capital loss of $9,000. In addition, they sold the home they had lived in for the past 10 years and experienced a $75,000 gain on the house. How much will their net capital gains (or losses) be for 2015? How much will they pay (or save) in taxes as a result of these transactions?
