    Generally, single taxpayers may exclude $250,000 of gain on the sale of a principal residence. If the residence which was sold has not been occupied for at least two years, the $250,000 exclusion is prorated if the sale is due to a change in place of employment, health, or unforeseen circumstances as provided in the regulations. Jim can exclude only $125,000 of the gain since he lived in the residence only one year. Jim has a taxable gain of $125,000 ($300,000 – $50,000 – $125,000).
