I’ve just made a small discovery. As it happens, I have a competing tax program comparable to TT Dlx, so I tried this little exercise on it. All I did was create a return and then entered the amounts from box 8 and box 10. No problem. It did NOT demand that I reduce the bond premium in box 10 to the amount (which is zero) in box 2. Knowing that, I feel more comfortable in merely not reporting the small amount in box 10.
