Q: I own GOOG shares in a US account at 982 US, or converted to Cdn $ at 1,299.97. I also own the GOOG mini shares at 23.35 Cdn$.
Am I correct that I have to add these shares to calculate my ACB, 1299.97+23.35=1,323.32/2=661.66?
Or are the shares considered separate with each having their own ACB?
Thank you. cheers
