Hi Nexchap.  One other question on MLP non-taxable merger.  When MLP A (CEQP) merges into MLP B (ET), what happens to the cost basis for MLP A?  Does it also have to be carried forward (separate record only) and combined with cost basis for MLP B when MLP B is eventually sold?

 

Or does the cost basis for MLP A get figured into the cost basis for MLP B when the K1 is issued for the first time after merger?
