Investors & landlords
The method you used to determine the cost basis of investments sold would not be reported on your tax return. I suggest you look on the last return that you reported sales of those securities on and see if you can discern how you determined the cost basis, based on what was reported on the Form 1099-B and your records for the investment purchases and what you listed on the tax return. Then, choose a costing method that is consistent going forward.
