Were it me for $25 - I would just be conservative and put it as short term as it is not going to have a significant affect on the overall tax due.

I try to make sure not to do $50 of research for a $10 question, but that's just my nature.

For 25 bucks and a cost factor that small, I would put zero cost and move on to the next return.
