Hi, If you've put the downpayments from the CC against Liab:CarLoan, then the initial opening balance of the Loan should be for the full value of the car. therefore the opening loan transaction should be to increase the asset account by the full value of the car. alternatively, re-book the CC transactions to Assets:Car, if the loan was only ever for part of the total value of the car.
