Say I bought and sold a listed stock 6 different times for different amounts over the tax period.
So if my first purchase was 23/7/2021 for 200 units.
And my following purchases were over the next few months for 324, 178, 230, 240 and 440 units.
And in between purchases I sold amounts here and there to keep myself afloat financially. Say sold amounts were 240, 150, 135 and 107 units respectively, at different times.
When I am asked for “date of acquisition” for one instance of a trade (when doing my CGT online), they also ask for a “date of disposal”
——
So for transaction 1:
Purchase date: 23/7/2021 Units: 200 Cost: let’s say $350
——
I would put acquisition date as 23/7/2021, but what do I put for “date of disposal”, as I’ve never disposed exactly 200 units. What exactly are they after here?
I haven’t sold all my shares in this stock either, just small amounts here and there to stay liquid. I maintain the majority of my investment.
TL;DR What are the tax guys after when they ask for “date of disposal” when filling in details of a stock acquisition for a tax filing?
