The computation is shown below:

a. The total short term gain or loss is

= Short term capital gain + short term capital gain

= $18,000 + $4,000

= $22,000

b. The total long term gain or loss is

Long term loss is $10,000

c. So, the carryover amount is

= $22,000 - $10,000

= $12,000

d. The carryover amount should be reported on the schedule D at ordinal income rates, not the capital rate. Plus the net short term gain contains no special treatment
