Yes David, I am sure my bank manager is going to provide me a detailed report, but it is fun to have all details under control :-D In fact, it is not so complicated, I only miss the possibility to move the order of transactions of one account manually. Perhaps one solution (that I think it is

Wow! That would be very messy to track in GnuCash and even a challenge in a simple spreadsheet. Do you have some other software designed to address this scenario? Can the fund manager give you a detailed report ? David C On Wed, Nov 14, 2018, 1:28 PM Christian Pinedo Zamalloa <

Hello, in our case, the capital/gain losses are delayed in fund transfers and only considered when the share is sold. I would try to put a clearer example: Fund A account 1, 2010-1-1, buy 10 shares @ 10 €, gross/net buy 100 € 2, 2015-1-1, transfer 10 shares @ 9 € to fund B, gross sell 90€ with

If funds were used to buy a different security first then that security was sold for a withdrawal and intermediate gains matter unlike in U.S. custodial accounts, it could get very messy. David C On Wed, Nov 14, 2018 at 9:43 AM D wrote: > If OP is looking to track gains using FIFO, wouldn't

If OP is looking to track gains using FIFO, wouldn't the lots functionality work for them? I believe that it uses FIFO exclusively... David T. On November 14, 2018, at 8:23 PM, David Carlson wrote: I think that Christian is asking a slightly different question. I interpret it that in one

I think that Christian is asking a slightly different question. I interpret it that in one parent custodial mutual fund account he purchased Fund A on dates 1, 2 and later then sold some or all of Fund A and bought Fund B in the same custodial account on date 3. Now I am not sure if he needs to

As you suggest, I am following the method 1 because I didn't know another solution. I didn't realise of the second approach but I consider the first option is more easy to implement. When I sell shares, I must select manually transactions to track capital gain/losses because the order of the

[GNC] order of transactions for mutual funds

2018-11-14 Thread Christian Pinedo Zamalloa
Hello, I would like to know if it is possible to order manually the transactions of a mutual fund account. When I transfer suscriptions from one mutual fund to another one, the order of the transfer transaction depends on the date when the transfer was done. However, it would be quite useful to
