Client sold his business auto. The basis was zero after section 179 as of the date of the sale. The sale price was $12,000, original cost of the asset was 25,000. Dispositions on the asset entry worksheet is showing a loss of $13,025. No gain or loss are showing on the 4797 or anywhere on the k-1.
Also, shouldn't there be a gain of $12000 since the asset's basis is $0?
The auto was purchased in 2015 and sold last year.

With an S-Corp, the § 179 sale/gain/loss info is separately reported to each shareholder on the supplemental K-1 page(s)

Yes, thank you. Had forgotten and panicked when the gain wasn't showing up on the return.
