Thanks for your reply. What I meant by reinvesting was when the dividends are distributed they are set to auto reinvest into the same fund. No money is taken out of the fund. I never have possession of the funds nor do I redirect them to a different account. So, I was wondering if those automatically reinvested dividends can be considered as assets purchased (shares obtained with the auto reinvested dividends) after December, 2011 (which is the question within the TT system) I am not a professional tax preparer and that's why I was seeking additional insight.
