Several.
Most obvious are the two expense charts, Reports>Income&Expense>Expense Chart
or Reports>Income&Expense>Expense Piechart. If you want the actual numbers,
turn on the table on the Display page of Options.
Then there's Reports>Income&Expense>Income
Statement/Reports>Income&Expense>Profit&Loss (the two are pretty much the same,
just different names). They'll summarize all of your income and expenses for
whatever period you choose. The depth of child accounts is adjustable on the
Accounts page of Options.
You can also use the Find dialog to select accounts and a date range to get a
ledger-style register with all of the matching transactions, then run
Reports>Account Report to convert it into a report. Note that the account
selection widget in the Find dialog accepts multiple selections.
