That's what I do for our car fuel purchases, with a note like:
436.9km@38.43l 8.80l/100km
(27/30 mpg (US/Imp), for those who still measure things that way ;) )
Manually calculated, but in a standard format, so that if I wanted to
extract data to look at things like like averages or trends, or convert
to kg CO2 emissions, I could.

Hi, I started using GnuCash with the goal of tracking my expenses and
generating reports, but one important thing for me would be storing the
quantity of an expense and automatically generating the resulting expense
from that. For instance: if I buy 0.8 kg of cheese for $10 the kilogram, I
would like to write down the quantity that I've bought (0.8 kg), the unity
(or kilogram) price ($10) and extract the resulting expense from it ($8). Is
it possible to achieve this kind of thing with GnuCash?
Thanks in advance,
Edgard
Hi Edgard,
you can store that sort of info in the notes/memo fields of a transaction- but
that may not be what you are looking for, as you will still have to do a
manual calculation.
The other coice that you might be able to make work for you is to use the
business features - a bill has quantity & unit cost columns. But it might
make things overly complicated.
HTH,
Maf.
