Sorry to revive this thread from several days ago, but I'd also like to know the answer of the above question. More specifically, why is there an adjustment in his first example (the one with 0.011 conversion rate), but not in the second (the one with 0.051 conversion rate)? What is the rule by which Ledger decides that an adjustment is needed? > <Adjustments> are used to show that the price of a commodity changed between > two postings, affecting the running total.

This does not seem to happen in the OP's last example, where ledger bal ^assets -V gives -0.01$ Assets but ledger reg ^assets -V does not show anything. Am I missing something? In my ledger file, I get <Adjustment> lines when I compute monthly averages like this: ledger -p 'this year' -MA --collapse reg ^expenses -X CAD I can get rid of them with -O. In this case, I do not find them meaningful, but maybe I just cannot interpret them... Is it ok to add -O? Thanks in advance, Life
