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!
