What the past year did to your cost basis
Holding 100 shares of XYLD through the last 11 payouts, you’d have collected $392.67. About $303.14 of it (77%) 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 figures (Form 8937, year-end tax statement or annual report) where Gooseberry has them, and 19a-1 estimates otherwise; a payout that a published Form 8937 leaves out counts as 0%. Gooseberry does this per lot, with your real purchase dates.
