Investors & landlords

I only had one lot of 100 EMC shares (long term) at time of merger, whose basis was $1,104.95 or $11.0495 per share.   Can you advise me what basis to use for (1) the 86.77% of shares in the Section 351 exchange, (2)  the 13.23% of shares in the redemption, and (3) the partial DVMT share sold later on 9/20/16?   I think I have already figured out the "proceeds" for these 3 cases per Form 8937 as (1) $2,206.56 LT, (2) $41.33 LT, and (3) $7.07 ST.  Do those sound correct??
If you can give me cost basis for each of these 3 cases I can subtract them from each of the "proceeds" and then generate the Form 8949 for the 1099B.
