Question

I has an ESPP where some shares had a 5% discount and others had a 15% discount. How do I enter both of these?

It depends upon how it was reported on your 1099-B form. If it was reported as one sale, you will need to split them into 2 separate sales based upon the number of shares purchased at each discount rate, and then enter the cost basis for each set of shares accordingly. You may also have a supplemental form issued with your 1099-B form that may also list out the cost basis for you.

Please see "How do I enter Employee Stock Purchase Plans (ESPP) sales in TurboTax" for directions on entering the 1099-B information.
