We have an insurance policy with a guaranteed return at maturity as well
as profit participation (Überschussbeteiligung) which is calculated
annually. Presumably both are some kind of investment income, but it is
unclear to me how to account for them. I suspect that the guaranteed
return should be classified as interest, but should I record it in
GnuCash annually or only at maturity?
The profit participation is a complete mystery to me. This is a share
of the insurer's profits which accrues to the policies in years when the
insurer achieves haigher returns on its (capital) investments than a
predetermined threshold. Is this a capital gain? How should I record it?
