: Company A acquired Company B. My tax basis for Company A is $13.64. The purchase price is $49. How will capital gains be computed?

Is there now only a company A? The capital gains would be based off your
cost basis in A and the price at which you sell A. The exact case depends
on the details of the acquisition. Did you get more shares in A when they
bought B?

Thanks,
Mark
