Business Software Adding Error

In Long Term Sales of 1099B , totals of individual stocks add up incorrectly. So, individual totals from Box 1D minus 1E do not add up correctly for gains/loss in summary for a sale account after pressing continue from list to summary.

Check Forms Mode to ensure this is not some anomaly in the interview display.

 

Also, which type of return are you preparing (e.g., 1041, 1065, 1120-S)?

 

I have several test returns and have been unable to reproduce math errors in the program stemming from the entry of investment sales.

I am working on 1041 This photo shows the itemized list and totals with gain as it should be $14,444. I'll post the following page on next post.

Here is the next page after pressing continue; the summary is $14,445. While only $1; it still is an error. I have tried several times to see if the error clears but does not.
