Wm — Thank you for your suggestion. I indeed did that. Deleted the stock transaction and started again with the stock assistant. The advanced portfolio report is now making sense. The unrealized gains are now correct. However, t balance sheet is still combining the capital gain (realized gain) with the unrealized gains seen on the advanced portfolio report. Maybe there is some accounting principle that I don’t understand. I would expect that the unrealized gains in the balance sheet would mirror the same in the advanced portfolio report. The capital gain is indeed properly reported as income in the income (profit and lose) statement.
Still confused. Thank you — Robert > On Jun 26, 2026, at 11:31 AM, Wm Tarr <[email protected]> wrote: > > Have you tried doing a purchase and sale using the stock assistant?
