and Amount ( in the commodity of the Account ) and a Value,
which may be in some other commodity needed to balance the transaction.
A Lot is a collection of Splits with the same Account. In the case of a closed
Lot where the Values of all Splits in the Lot are in the same commodity, the
realized capital gain/loss on that Lot is the sum of the Values of the Splits in the Lot.
The unrealized capital gain/loss for an open Lot is the difference between the Value of the
Splits in the Lot and the value at the current price of the Amount of Commodity in the
Lot.
So how do you handle half open Lots like:
Lot
Amount Value Split-> 100 500
Split-> -50 -500
how do you handle the realized/unrealized gain/loss for this.
Also, how do you handle situations where the Commodity of the Value is different.
For example:
Lot
Amount Value
Split-> 100 AMD 500 USD
Split-> -100 AMD -400 EUR
How do you handle the realized capital gain/loss for this Lot?
Also, how do you handle the issue of an account with two Lots like this:
Lot1
Amount Value
Split-> 50 AMD 250 USD
Lot2
Amount Value
Split-> 50 AMD 500 USD
I then sell 80 AMD in a transaction where the AMDAccount spit is
Split-> 80 AMD 1600 USD
How do I apply this single split to the above Lots? Do I split the Splits?
Combine the Lots?
