    If the amount reported on your Form 1099-B is not correct, you should still enter the amount reported , then make the adjustment to reflect the correct amount.  To figure the adjustment needed, see the Worksheet for Basis Adjustments in Column (g). Also, see Example 4—Adjustment for incorrect basis.
