So your mutual funds should be set up as "investments" and not as "accounts". Look for the FAQ. --ron |

| cost basis/avg cost per share I've got 2 accounts (mutual funds) set up under a single financial institution. In Portfolio, using Valuations view, Money calculates the cost basis for both accounts. In Holdings view, it only provides cost basis for one account, while displaying other details for both. Also, in the Investment Performance section at the bottom of the Portfolio screen, the commentary says the average weighted cost for one of the funds is $0. I would like an average cost per share calculation for both funds. I can easily calculate this if I have reliable cost basis info for both funds, but what's this $0 about? Thanks for any input as I try to figure out how to use this software. David |
