om recently received 2,180 shares of restricted stock from his employer, Independence Corporation, when the share price was $10 per share.

What is the amount of Tom's income or loss on the sale

Answer 1

the amount of loss on the sale is $4,360

Step-by-step explanation:

the computation of the amount of Tom's income or loss on the sale is shown below:

= 2,180 shares ×$12 - 2,180 shares × $14

= $26,160 - $30,520

= $4,360

Hence, the amount of loss on the sale is $4,360
