If the award price means the price when the RSUs vested, then yes, the award price should be the same as the price when the RSUs vested. We don't know the price on vesting day that your company uses to value your RSUs. For example, does your company use the opening price on vesting day? Or does it use the closing price? Some companies may use the average price on vesting day as the per share price for the RSUs.
E-Trade likely does not know at what price your company has valued the RSUs, and thus, it uses zero as the award price. What is most important is the actual amount of withholding on your W-2. You can determine the per share price of the RSUs sold to cover by dividing the withholding amount by the number of shares sold to cover. The per share price seems to be around $50 ($2,000 divided by 40 shares).
No, you do not need to report the sale of the RSUs that were sold to cover. You did not sell any RSUs. Your company did on your behalf, as they are required to do, and reported that withholding on your W-2, which they are required to do. If you sold your RSUs in 2022, they you would need to report that sale; however, because you did not sell any RSUs in 2022, there is nothing for you to report. Therefore, in connection with your RSUs, when asked did you sell any investments in 2022, answer No.
