Probably, but you may want to actually verify this with your accountant or a
tax professional.

Thanks, Mark. That was the reason. Cost Basis is set to Average Cost
Basis (Double Category). I searched the web and the three mutual fund
companies I read about use Single Category. I think that's what I should
use, right?

Then it's probably how the mutual fund is set for calculating cost, normally
mutual funds are NOT done actual cost, but are done as average cost.
Right mouse click the fund in the Portfolio and go to Investment Details
You can switch it to Actual cost if you want.
But in general, the rule for mutual funds is to average cost them.

Currency conversion?
Is this in a different currency than the base currency for the file?

Default Money 2006 Capital Gain Problem

My daughter invest $50 per month in a mutual fund. In 2006, she sold
some shares. She has entered all the transaction in Money 2006. She
tried to create capital gain report for tax but the entries in capital
gain does not match the one in transaction report. For example in
transaction she has:

Date: 3/1/2002
Quantity: 6.281
Price: 7.96
Total: 50.00


But in capital gain she has:

Quantity: 6.281
Date Bought: 3/1/2002
Date Sold: 4/4/2006
Sale Proceed: 59.61
Purchase cost: 46.39

Everything is fine except purchase cost should be $50 and not $46.39.
Purchase cost supposed to be fixed for all the month but in capital gain
report they rang from 45.48-60.83.

What's wrong?

TIA
