Hi Fred

First up you need more details on this transaction to determine the exact nature of the spin-off, the valuations, and whether ABC treated it as a dividend, capital reduction, or combination of both. Was there a cash payment as well? Any fractional shares involved? Were capital gains/losses crystallised or carried forward?

ABC should have sent you information about this, otherwise Google it.

Once you have all the details, we can suggest how to record it in GnuCash.


Regards

Geoff

In looking at the Help file within GnuCash, I found a section on Splits and
Mergers.  After reading that section, I still do not know how to enter a
Spinoff.  That it, I have 25 shares of ABC stock.  They did some kind of
spin off and gave me 1 share of XYZ stock.  I still have 25 shares of ABC.
How do I record this?
