Investors & landlords
these were sales by the etf to cover your share of its expenses.
here's what I would do unless you want to spend a lot of time more accurately reporting the sale by accounting for the cost and holding period. Combine each into just 1 sale for the 1.86. for cost use zero for date sold use the last date and for the date acquired use the same date.
to accurately account for the cost and holding period you would need your tax basis on the date of each sale. that needs to be split between long-term and short-term. Then you would multiply each by the cost factor given. the sales proceeds would also need to be divided between short and long-term based on the ratio of short-term shares held on the date of sale divided by the total shares held. the balance would be long-term
even if all are long term, it still some work to calculate cost basis for the 12 small mounts
your choice.
