The cost basis thing used to be a nightmare. At one point with some old stock that got converted to another company's stock with an acquisition, I just threw up my hands and put in a plausible number. (It wasn't a huge amount of money in the scheme of things.) But these days, the only time I've had to manually provide a cost basis to my accountant was when I was donating some stock.

I’ve never had RSUs show up properly without needing cash basis adjustment. Same goes for ESPP shares.
