That's actually not correct. see https://www.ledger-cli.org/3.0/doc/ledger3.html#Balance-verification in particular 5.10.3 Resetting a balance The "= 2 Bar" syntax means that you reset the balance to 2 Bar. And ledger does this correctly, but the problem is that both postings contain Target, so ledger adds +1 Bar (to get from 1 Bar to 2 Bar) but then also does a -1 Bar to Target. You'd want something like this: 2014/12/28 Insert Source Target 2 Foo 2014/12/28 Insert Source Target 1 Bar 2014/12/29 Check Target = 2 Bar Source There are some bugs though.
