Deductions & credits

Basis will be fair market value at the date of death which is probably about you sold the items for.

I assume you are doing the 1041 Estate return.


Go to Income tab 

go to Investments

Stocks, Bonds other.

Note this will be long-term gain or loss.

Check box E Basis not reported. 

You will enter the sales price, sale date, cost, and purchase date (I would use one date) and also lump things together as Household Goods.
