However, the remaining gain not covered by the Section 121 exclusion is taxed at your ordinary income tax rate.Here's how the calculation typically works:Calculate the Depreciation Recapture: The $9,000 of depreciation would be recaptured at a maximum rate of 25%, which is $2,250 (25% of $9,000).Calculate the Remaining Gain: Subtract the excluded amount (Section 121 exclusion) from the total gain: $100,000 (Total Gain) - $9,000 (Depreciation Recapture) - $250,000 (Section 121 Exclusion) = $0Tax the Remaining Gain at Ordinary Income Rate: Since the remaining gain is $0, there would be no additional tax on the gain.So, based on this calculation, it seems like there should not be any additional tax owed after taking into account the Section 121 exclusion and the depreciation recapture at a maximum rate of 25%.It's essential to review your calculations and ensure that you are accurately applying the exclusion and depreciation recapture.
