What the past year did to your cost basis

Holding 100 shares of NLSI through the last 10 payouts, you’d have collected $226.15. About $183.76 of it (81%) was return of capital: not taxed when paid, but it came off your cost basis, which raises the gain when you sell.

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.
