Gooseberry’s Taxes screen: this year’s payouts split into income and return of capital, and cost basis per fund

The part your broker doesn’t show

Berries or the bush?

Many option-income funds pay you mostly return of capital: a cutting from your own bush, not a berry. It isn’t taxed when it lands, but it lowers your cost basis, so the tax waits for the day you sell.

Your brokerage shows the payout. Gooseberry shows what it’s made of, and keeps your real cost basis lot by lot using the issuers’ own tax filings.

SPYI’s Oct 23, 2026 payout was $0.5087 a share. By the issuer’s estimate, 99% of it was return of capital.

Everything an income investor actually asks

Your next payday, to the cent

Gooseberry knows which shares you owned on each ex-date, so a mid-month purchase never inflates this month’s check.

Your real cost basis

Return of capital lowers your basis every month. Gooseberry keeps the ledger per lot, using Form 8937 finals, before your 1099 arrives.
