knowing the maturity, you can get the closing price for 12/31 from
your broker or from the WSJ.
If it is in a futures acct, the broker should provide you with a
statement of interest earned that would have everything you need for
taxes. The statement value for most traditional futures brokers is
fixed 90% or something like that. Which makes no sense and is just
wrong. I guess it is a holdover from the pre-tech days so they didn't
have to value tbills every day.
