Tax information and cost basis FAQ

To view and download current and archived account documents, sign into our secure website at www.rbcwealthmanagement.com and select Documents at the top of the screen or contact your financial advisor. You can also contact your financial advisor for copies of tax documents.


Yes, we support select TurboTax and H&R Block downloads and features.


Cost basis is the price you paid to purchase a security plus any additional fees or commissions. This is displayed as “Net Cost” and is used to determine tax liability (gain or loss) when the position is closed in a taxable account.


If the cost basis is not known, N/A (not available) appears under both Net Cost and Unrealized Gain/Loss. If you can provide this information, contact your financial advisor to have it added. Common reason for N/A include stock splits and partial sale of a security position.


We subtract the net original cost of the security, identified as Net Cost on the site, from the current market value. For short sales, we subtract the current market value from the net sale proceeds. Where applicable, gain/loss is broken out between purchased tax lots and reinvested tax lots.

The calculation is affected by the following security types and other factors:

  • Unit investment trusts (UITs)
    The cost basis for UITs is not available on your online access, so N/A (Not applicable) appears for gain/loss.
  • Mutual funds
    Reinvested dividends and capital gains are reported separately from the original cost. For a mutual fund investment, this can result in a gain/loss figure that differs significantly from the cumulative total return that’s reported by the mutual fund manager.

    Cumulative total return is a standard gauge of mutual fund performance that measures the total rise in value of a share of a fund over time. This assumes the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains at zero cost.
  • Fixed income securities
    We accrete or amortize the discount or premium on a fixed income security, if applicable. However, we do not include performance factors, such as income earned over time, in the calculation.
  • Equities
    We do not include cash dividends in the calculation.
  • Options
    Gain/loss is calculated for option contracts that are purchased or sold. There are limitations related to calculating gain/loss for options contracts that are assigned or exercised. We are not able to match an option trade with an assigned or exercised security in order to adjust the cost basis on the underlying security.

    For example, if you are short five puts that are assigned, the gain or loss is reflected on the option assignment only. No adjustment is made to the cost basis upon the purchase of the underlying security.
