How do you file tax for buying stock option then exercise the option?

We're talking plain vanilla call options, correct? Say, a $49 call on 100 shares of Acme at a $1/share premium. (The weird strike price will make sense in a second.) The IRS considers all the money you paid to buy the stock to be the "basis price," so add the strike price of $49 to the premium of $1, multiply by 100, and you get a basis of $5000 for this transaction. (I'm going to leave out commissions here because I want the math to be real simple to understand.)
At this point the IRS doesn't want you to file anything. You only file when you sell, because until you sell there's no capital gain or loss incurred.
Four years down the road, you decide to sell this block of stock. The price has gone to $75 per share. Subtract the $50 basis from the $75 sale price, and you've got a $2500 capital gain that you get to pay taxes on.

Can you file as a tax deduction the deposit lost on a cancelled contract with a homebuilder?
The best you could hope for would be that you could capitalize the lost deposit as part of the cost of acquiring whatever new home you did purchase/build. If you decided that it was not worth the risk/cost of buying/building a new home, then the lost deposit it just that - lost, with no deductibility. It could, however, be rationalized as part of the cost (basis) of whatever home you did acquire (presuming you did). Otherwise, it's as deductible as a lease-purchase option should you decide not to exercise the purchase option - not deductible. Sorry.
