Hi Peter

From what you have said, the new security will inherit the old security's cost base. So I would create a transaction to reduce the old one to zero and add the new quantity to the new one. Blank out the price and put in the cost base as the value - GnuCash will calculate the price.

Screenshot #1 attached shows an example where "BHP" is the old security, and "CBA" is the new security.

Hope this helps.

I own some Exchange Traded Fund stocks, and one of the stocks has been restructured: the stock I owned has been converted into another stock, so that 1 ABC share (the original stock) has been converted into N DEF shares. I have only been provided with the ratio of share values, not with prices. No money changed hands.

How do I represent this in Gnucash?

Peter
