Investors & landlords

@Mike9241 - OP states he had two accounts - the May 1 lot was in account A and the May 15 lot was in Account B.  He stated he sold the lots in Account B.   For all we know that is at two different brokerage houses.  Can't see how FIFO / LIFO comes into play in this siutation.  OP always has the choice to identify the specific lot he wants to sell, which may not be either lot if there were more than two lots.
