Hi All
I plan to sell my current holding of 3,935 Vodafone shares which are the intact legasy of my origonal investment in Eircom The current value is £ 1.55 share
What purchase price per share should I factor in as I need to offset this loss against a gain in another share which I am also selling

Thanks in advance

As a matter of interest what was your original investment back in the day?
 
Hi Armada
my origonal investment was Irish punt 17,805.48

Hi Joe 90
Can I take €4.66 as the purchase point for my current 3935 Vodafone shares

Thanks all
 
Were Divs reinvested in Shares? Is the total number of shares = original purchase?
 
As monagt says you need to establish what additional shares have been acquired since the original investment.

The cost of the original investment is IR£17,805 x 57% and if there were any further additions then the direct cost of those, bonus issues do not have a base cost.
 
Thanks All
The origonal Vodafone issue was 2855 shares in May 2001 All additional shares were dividend issue (DRP)
 
If you had extra shares allocated by bonus or by reinvesting dividends and paid tax on the dividends as one should annually then the only issue is the buy/sell price of the extra shares x current cgt.
and you can balance capital losses vs capital gains and pay tax open the difference id positive.
