The answer is "no". And your Broker is lying to you. There is no such thing as $0.0036 so there is no "value" there.
You should record the 4.000 shares and total value of $105.95 Ignore the "price" difference. It doesn't matter in the long run. Even if you are worried about the price basis, you're talking a difference of 4 x $0.0009 = $.0036. The IRS will round to the nearest whole dollar, so, in other words, this amount is irrelevant. -derek On Fri, September 13, 2024 10:55 am, NS wrote: > Thanks for the answers.
