I sold my business this year. I started it from scratch 10 years ago. How do I calculate the cost basis?

From your own records. Your cost basis is all the money you put into the business, less the amounts you previously deducted on schedule C, over those 10 years.

I have used QB for the last 10 years for that business. Is there a report/line that would show me that number? Thank you.
