case a:

taxable income    $3,70,000

STCG                                                   $ 20,000

Total taxable income                              $ 3,90,000

As LTCL will not be set off from the STCG or taxable income and it should be carried forward to next year and the tax liability will be on $ 3,90,000

case b:

Taxable income                                      $ 3,70,000

STCG                                                    $ 30,000

LTCG                                                     $ 12,000

total taxable income                             $ 4,12,000

as there is short term capital gain and long term gain so it will include in taxable income and tax liability will increase and the tax has to be paid on $ 4,12,000

case c:

taxable income                                      $ 3,70,000

LTCG              $ 9,000

STCL             ($ 4,400)                          $ 4,600

Total taxable income                          $ 3,74,600

as STCL can be set off against LTCG so it is set off from LTCG and the tax liability will increase and tax to be paid on $ 3,74,600.
