What the past year did to your cost basis
Holding 100 shares of AIYY through the last 50 payouts, you’d have collected $647.28. About $326.14 of it (54%) was return of capital: not taxed when paid, but it came off your cost basis, which raises the gain when you sell.
Only payouts with a published split are counted in the return-of-capital figure.
Uses the issuer’s final Form 8937 figures where filed and 19a-1 estimates otherwise. Gooseberry does this per lot, with your real purchase dates.
