Thank you GeorgeM777! Your contribution is very much appreciated. I took your advice and went back looking for the basis of that stock's liquidation but oddly enough, on TD Ameritrade's original monthly statement, the $410 was listed as ordinary dividend, yet on the 1099 composite, it was classified as Cash Liquidation Distribution. Anyway, the amount is way lower than my capital invested in that stock so I am not going to worry about excess capital contribution. Just thought it was odd and how reliant and trusting I have become to whatever came out of the broker's computer.
