Certificates of Deposit (CDs) report interest each year as it accrues by sending you a Form 1099-INT.  They don't change their initial value or purchase price.  If you cashed out the CD before it matured, then you would have a early withdrawal penalty.

 

When you enter the interest income from the CD, check the box beside "My form has info in other boxes (this is uncommon)." This will open a drop down with additional boxes. Enter the early withdrawal penalty in box 2.
