Hi Need assistance thinking through this situation and coming up with a solution.
I've run into a dividend discrepancy between our TD Waterhouse 1099 statement and separate HD 1099 with what I have in the Accounting software. Our year-end valuation statements match up perfectly with TDW statements and I have cross checked all dividends and have added in X-dividends dates successfully. It seems to be associated with Home Depot - we had a DRIP early on in 2004 and then transferred to our TDW account in September. Statements as follows: 1099 TD Total Ordinary Dividends - 1142.33 Home Depot 1099 51.51 Total 1193.84 Total Ordinary Dividends Software 1167.84 Which gives me a difference of $26 which I cannot figure out? I have accounted for three dividends payments during 2004 3/22/04 14.99 6/29/04 17.33 12/17/04 12.33 Total 44.65 and have also accounted for a $20.66 as long - term gain HD (two extra checks were sent to account for odd share amount liquidated. Maybe I've classified this incorrect? I've tried preparing with software to see what would result and the first screen asks for the HD qualifying dividend and allows 44.65 (which matches above) but doesn't match the HD 1099. Also, theres another field in that same box titled Unrecap Sec 1250 and says underneath total 20.66. which seems to match the long term gain I accounted for. Is it possible that the HD 1099 oridinary dividend is incorrect? I'm not sure what to do? I can't seem to move forward on the Taxes until I true up the Dividends with the 1099. Advice or guidance welcome. thank you, Judy ------------------------------------------------------------ TO CHANGE YOUR SUBSCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------ You can change your eMail address, or the way you receive club-treasurers messages at: http://lists.better-investing.org/cgi-bin/lyris.pl?enter=club-treasurers To unsubscribe, send an eMail to YOUR PERSONAL AUTOMATED UNSUBSCRIBE ADDRESS: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------------
