More complicated that you would expect, depends on they type of asset, who contributed the funds initially, and state law regarding severability, among other factors.


For example in a situation in which a child was added to a brokerage account of a parent, and the child had contributed no money nor made any withdrawals.  The parent would report all gains.

This is land purchased in 2016 and sold in 2018.  From what I understand, I need to report the full amount fo gain on the return I am doing with an off-set for the amount that is attributed to the other individual.  I am not sure where to enter the off-set information within ProConnect.  Thank you!
