Default Re: Your Portfolio: Performance View problem

Thank you Cal Learner for both posts. Changing the one fund initial
transaction from AddShares to Buy did the trick. I had upgraded a Quicken
file way back when and that is how the file was imported. The interesting
thing is the other funds in the group also have the AddShares, but they did
not have the errors.

For PRU,
http://www.prudential.com/media/mana...de_4-10-01.pdf
"page 25" page 29 of 60, agrees with your zero.

It seems odd to me. You were wise take the shares instead of the
cash.

Check thru the transactions for that fund, and if you find AddShares
or RemoveShares, turn those into correct Buy and Sell transactions.

Default Your Portfolio: Performance View problem

I've been using money since '98. Upgraded to the 2000 version and the 2004
versions and this problem is still here. The problem is that the Ann. Ret.
column in the performance view shows N/A for one fund in the fund group that
I have set up. There are a ton of purchases in there that date back to 1995.
I really don't want to wipe them out and re-enter them. The ROI All Dats
shows a valid amount (107.6%), along all other fields, except for the Annual
Return. I do have other funds in this group with higher ROI All Dates
percentages, so I don't think that is were the problem is. I have tried
running both the quick and standard repairs, no errors were found either time.

I do have two other N/A on Ann. Ret. Both are ones I understand, I had some
insurance in a mutual company that converted to a stock based corporation and
they distributed stock as part of the conversion, so there is a cost basis of
zero. Any suggestions on how to treat the cost basis, or was I correct in
assumming a $0.00 basis?

The second is what is now a penny stock ($.007), so the math on both of
these involves the current value divided by zero.

Any suggestion on how fix the account to gain a correct Annual Return
figure. It's not a big thing, but it is nice to know have the funds are
doing.

Thank you.
