ThomasM125, thank you very much for your help!  After taking your advice and then reviewing the results in form view, I now understand the program takes the full purchase price and multiplies it by the percentage of business use to establish the basis.  (It then subtracts that basis from the business portion of the sale price plus the amounts depreciated through the standard mileage deduction each year of use to arrive at the gain/loss.)  My only remaining problem is that my business use percentage varied from year to year and while I used that average to arrive at the business portion of the sale price, the program used the 2024 business percentage to arrive at the basis.  Now I have inconsistent percentages.  Is there any way to use the overall average percentage instead as it is more accurate (and beneficial)?
