Consider this example snippet:

2023-06-18 * "Buy shares of XYZ"
  Assets:US:ETrade:Cash                           -110.00 USD
  Assets:US:ETrade:XYZ                                10 XYZ {10.00 USD}
  Expenses:Financial:Commissions               10.00 USD

2023-07-21 * "Sell shares of XYZ"
  Assets:US:ETrade:XYZ                             -10 XYZ {10.00 USD} @ 12.00 
USD
  Assets:US:ETrade:Cash                            110.00 USD
  Expenses:Financial:Commissions               10.00 USD
  Income:US:ETrade:Gains                           -20.00 USD //anything else 
yields an error with bean-check

As I understand it, actual capital gains in this case would be 0 when you 
consider the two commissions. But if 20 shares were bought originally with a 
$10 commission, Cap gains income would be -5 dollars (since half of the 
original shares were sold).

Is there a way to reflect the actual capital gains?

Thanks!
