    Gain $1,600

    Explanation:

    Amount Realized = (290 shares * $93) - $240

    =$26,970-$240

    = $26,730

    Adjusted Basis = (290 shares * $86) + $190

    =$24,940+$190

    = $25,130

    Gain = $26,730 - $25,130

    = $1,600

    Therefore the amount of the gain/loss Kevin must report on his 2019 tax return will be $1,600
