How can I change the cost basis of each of my investments using the method of my brokerage firm rather than what Quicken uses to determine cost basis?

What method does your brokerage firm use?

I strongly suspect that the cost basis differs because you're not using the same selection method on shares that you sell. They might be using FIFO, and you might be using "Least Cap Gain". This will result in Cost Basis differences every time.
