Retirement tax questions

Actually, the pro rata rule would apply because the $400 of earnings is pre-tax money.  If you did not convert the full amount of the IRA before the end of the year so that the balance is zero, then a portion of the $7000 you already converted would be taxed due to the pro rata rule.
