According to IRS Publication 544 - Sales and Other Dispositions of Assets, Chapter 3 - Section 1250 Property:
Assets depreciated as code section 1250 property use the straight-line depreciation method. Resulting gain is not immediately recaptured at ordinary rates like gains on 1245 property (there is no tax item called section 1250 recapture). Instead, any gain from the disposition of 1250 property results in a tax item called unrecaptured 1250 gain (calculated on Form 4797 Part III). This is a flow-through item reported separately on the shareholder's K1. If net 1231 gain is reported on the individual's Schedule D, the gain will be taxed at a 25% rate to the extent that there is unrecaptured 1250 gain.
