Undetermined Term Transactions for Noncovered Tax Lots
Looking for guidance on how to properly enter a transaction from TD Ameritrade in the above subject category. I imported data from TD into Turbotax, but there are blanks in the 'Date acquired', 'Cost or other basis' and 'Gain or Loss' fields. Transaction proceeds were $144.17, but there is no way to determine the cost basis. I believe this to have been a long term transaction because footnote line 5 says: "if checked, the securities sold were noncovered securities and boxes 1b,1e, 1f, 1g and 2 may be blank. Generally, a noncovered security means: stock purchased before 2011, stock in most mutual funds purchased before 2012, stock purchased before 2011, stock in most mutual funds purchased before 2012, debt acquired before 2014. options granted or acquired before 2014, and securities futures contracts entered into before 2014." Additional information for the transaction sold 1/20/22 says: "Proceeds from sale of rights".
Any suggestions on what cost basis I should use? Could be a gain or a loss - no way to tell.
