The stock has a dividend of $10.13 Tax withheld is $1.52 This leaves a cash deposit of $8.61 in the parent brokerage account. How do I enter a split transaction that shows the dividend of $10.13, puts the tax of $1.52 into a tax tracking account and adds $8.61 to the cash balance in the parent brokerage account? As with a straight dividend I'm entering the main transaction in the parent brokerage account. No matter which way I try making these entry's I always have an amount added to the imbalance account or the $10.13 added to the cash balance. I have read GNU Cash Documentation on split transactions several times and I still can't figure this out.
