Do you know of any other ledger related tools for computing the gains or losses using different methods for cost calculation (average cost, first-in-first-out (same as longest-held-first), last-in-first-out)?
Right now -- as with most things in the ledger world because it's about reporting and not entering or modifying data -- you have to manually specify exactly which past commodities you wish to sell. I think a GUI on top of Ledger could do a good job of showing you which lots are held, and allowing you to select an optimum set based on your desired cost calculation. But the Ledger core does none of this. John
