I don't think there is and don't think everyone would characterize it as a
bug, in the context of how Money is designed to work.

Default Multi-Currency Investment Accounts!

I am using Money 2005 (US Version). I am using the base currency as the US
Dollar. I have 2 investment accounts which are USD & Euro.

I have several transaction in both accounts that include Stock, Mutual
Funds, & Other investments.

The problem is reporting the average cost of the Euro denominated
investments. When i recorded a Euro stock i have also recorded the Euro
Exchange Rate at that time ( as an example, in december 2003 Buy 100 shares
at Euro 10 - exchange rate 1.1)... The pertfolio manager indicates that the
average cost of this investment is 9.24 Euro, and not 10 Euro.... It seems
that the Portfolio manager is also considering the gain in the exchange rate
(The euro was at 1.1 in 2003 and is 1.19 now) as part pf the average cost...

The problem is that i want to keep the exchange rate profit/loss seperate...
Each of the investment account is independent.... i tried to fix it in the
Portfolio Manager setting (extend the value of the transaction in the
investment currency) but it does not make any difference...

Is there a way to fix this multi-currency bug or mistake?

Thanx for any suggestion or help...
