OK. That eliminates my suspicion that you had set this up as a bond,
which might have given different numbers.

I believe this is a bug in Money 2005. I have a note that a bug like
that got fixed for me when I went to Money 2006.

However I would right-click the security, and choose
SeeInvestmentActivities. Delete any transactions that are not part
of the real account. I don't know that this has any history of
fixing the problem. I am probably trying to apply logic to an area
where that does not apply.

If you are in the US, you might consider upgrading to Money 2007.
Otherwise GroupBy:Account until you upgrade.

You could try the Money 2007 Trial version to see if that corrects the
problem.

It's been a while since I've thought of this issue. I think it has to do
with when you originally set up the account having set an "estimated" amount
prior to adding actual transaction and that "estimated" amount was probably
$15071.18.
A work-around in Money 2005 (after ensuring that you have updated to the
1105 version: Help - About) is to try moving all of the transactions into a
NEW account (which won't have that estimated amount). In order to see the
Estimated amount in the Account Details, there needs to be no transactions.
If I remember correctly, an estimated amount in other accounts could impact
the Market Value in different accounts. So you'll need to find out which
account has that estimated amount (i.e. move all transactions out of it) and
then zero out the estimate.

Did you recently covert your file to 2005 deluxe (before downloading the
updates)?

Are those the actual numbers you are seeing? You appear to have put
in an artificial name and symbol, so are the numbers artificial too?

For Microsofts Money 2005 delux, shouldn't the 'Market Value' equal the 'Last
Price' times the 'Quantity' in the 'Valuation' view of the 'Portfolio
Manager', . For example, one line reads: "SYMBOL: ABC , CHART: [^], NAME: ABC
Technology Inc., LAST PRICE: 32.65, QUANTITY: 20.000, COST BASIS: 432.00,
MARKET VALUE: 15,724.18, INCOME: , PRICE APPRECIATION: 221.00"
As you can see, all of the calculations, except the "MARKET VALUE" are
correct. Even the PRICE APPRECIATION which depends on the value of the
"MARKET VALUE" is correct, but the MARKET VALUE value itself is way off! As
it turns out, every single value in this column is off by exactly 15,071.18
which is the 'MARKET VALUE' value assigned to line items which have zero
QUANTITY.
I have performed both Quick and Standard File Repairs but the anomaly
remains. Any suggestions? Thanks.
