The idea is to be able to match the statement from your broker (and/or your confirmation slips) to the tax return.

| I bought a call option. 10 contracts of company ABC on date X and paid 200.00. the option experied on date Y (1 month later) with a value of zero. My accountant on Sched D reported it like so: DESCR.|DATE ACQ|DATE SOLD|SALE PRICE|COST or BASIS|GAIN OR LOSS ABC 10/16/03 11/22/03 0 200.00 <200 Is this correct?. Since its not reported on a 1099 I was thinking that this should have some notation that it was an option. My first options trade, so first time reporting a losss on an option. Please advise if this is o.k, or if I should ask my accountant to do a little better, or should I write in "call option" above the name of the company..
