1099-Q - 1 = $7,563    2 = $0   3 = $0    5 = CESA    FVM 12/31/2021 = #13,897.13

 

I have a question about the next page on the CESA section.  It asks 3 questions.

1) Contributions for 2021 = $0

2) Basis as of 12/31/2020 = ???

3) Total value as of 12/31/2021 = $13,897

 

This was an account set up by my grandmother many years ago and who is now deceased.  I have no clue what to put as the basis (#2).  This is the first year I am taking a distribution for college expenses.  Is the value for the Basis just adding the value now plus the value of the distribution?  $13,897 + $7,563 = $21,460
