    Maximum gain that Olessa made from selling of her house is clearly = Selling price - (adjusted basis + selling expenses) = 540,000 - (220,000 + 10,000) = $310,000 She must report a capital gain of $310,000, as it is more than $250,000. However, only the amount above $250,000 will be taxed at capital gain tax rate.
