I received a required minimum distribution notice from the brokerage firm handling my traditional IRA.
The "IRA value" on that notice included only the investments and cash in the IRA on December 31,2015 but did not include an annuity held in that IRA with a significant surrender value.
Is this correct? The "Ending total account value" on the December 2015 account statement includes the cash surrender value of the annuity.
