Investors & landlords

The 1099-B you received should be coded B or E.  That is, its a trade where the broker reports the revenue to the IRS, but not the cost.  They do that because they recognize that they don't have the right cost:  they don't see the K-1.  That's why you can simply change the basis and not worry about the $0 under adjustments.

 

If they had actually reported the basis to the IRS, and there was a specific reason you wanted to adjust it, then their are various codes you can use to show the reason and the amount.
