Looking at the Advanced Portfolio report it seems that there are only two calculations done for a security that involve a division: Rate of Gain and Rate of Return.

Both of these calculations use Money In as the divisor.

So I'd suspect that something is amiss with the security you are having trouble with in terms of the accumulation of lot(s) of share * price for any buys you made. First thing I'd try is making sure you are showing zero total accounts, and probably showing hidden accounts, too. When I sell out of a particular security and no more shares are there, I usually hide that account, so my chart of accounts page isn't clogged with "dead" securities.

A second guess is that somewhere along the line a dividend reinvestment transaction was wrong? That's one of the transactions that, for mutual funds and the like, has non-integer share amounts, etc. Messed up transactions might cause the Money In to be goofy, maybe?

Doesn't seem like it's going to be an easy detective job, but if you scour your accounts you should be able to find it. You could always use the report options or even judicious account hiding to zero in on the top level account that contains the bad security. I.e. hide all but one top level account, try advanced portfolio report, if it is okay, go to next top level account, etc. Then concentrate on the next level down accounts to find the culprit there, etc. Tedious to be sure, but it might just work. At least it's not a program crash that happens when the bad security is encountered...
