which is subject to the allowance for depreciation provided in Subsection (F) of Section 34; or real property used in trade or
business of the taxpayer.

assets over the gains from such sales or exchanges.

(B) Percentage Taken into Account - In the case of a taxpayer, other than a corporation, only the following percentages
