There are three choices-cash transactions, investment transactions, and summary-and I meant summary. If you set the Portfolio to GroupBy:AccountName (at top), I expect the MarketValue columns to match in both views for the account. The Summary "Gain" column may be what you mean by "net gain". That would not be expected to match the MarketValue. They would differ because of PriceAppreciation and dividends or other distributions. - quote - > > > > > It is > > > not off by a little; in some cases it is by a lot.

What is the "investment snapshot"? How do you get there?> column in my investment snapshot column, which I do not understand. I don't see those listed as reports or modules to configure in to the "home" page. - quote - > It is

In particular, the Total Return (TR) columns and PriceAppreciation columns are ones you might want to add in to your favorite views there. I suggest you add the Portfolio shortcut to the top of your screen. |

| Net Gains/Losses on Investments Incorrect in Money PLus I have the new Money Plus deluxe edition, and have noticed that in my investments, the Market Value - cost basis is not equalling the "net gain" column in my investment snapshot column, which I do not understand. It is not off by a little; in some cases it is by a lot. I do not own many stocks and funds but have no idea why this is off; t should be simple math. There were some dividends but that should just affect the cost basis of my stock, and in turn, that number would effect my gain or loss. Is anyone else noticing this problem? Am I looking at something wrong here or is there a fix for this? It doesnt make any sense to me. |
