Thanks for replying. I should never have gotten to that point in the interview where it asked about the total value of my IRA. Because of some question I answered in error it was looking at reducing the taxable amount of my inherited IRA distribution using the basis from my traditional IRA accounts. From what I know now this should not be done.
So I deleted a couple of the IRA worksheets and answered the questions again. This time the IRA distribution appears correctly at its full value on my 1040. The calculations trying to reduce taxes on the IRA distribution above disappeared and th e 8606 shows the proper amount of my non-deductible traditional IRA contribution.
