Re: [GNC] Gnucash-created "closing" entries

Christopher, Agreed the balance sheet should really do the trick since it is the state of the accounts at a specific point. The only difference you usually come across is where intangible assets are involved as these are generally not included in net worth whereas they are in equity. David

Re: [GNC] Gnucash-created "closing" entries

That's the purpose of the current balance sheet. Set price-source to 'most-recent' and it should calculate all unrealized/realized (and trading) gains/losses, and add the appropriate adjustments in the net worth calculator. I'm not sure whether *any* other report will calculate these gains.

Stan, There is one other question which may be pertinent. I am assuming the gains and losses you are referring to are realized gains or losses and not unrealized gains or losses. If they are, should they not be reporting in an Income:Investment account rather than directly into Equity. Depending

Re: [GNC] Gnucash-created "closing" entries

Hi David, Wow, that was a super fast response. Sorry, that my bug searching skills were not up to snuff. Thank you for your response. You are right on the money with those two bugs being my problem. I know have a workaround (verified works for me) for the first and will wait on the second.

Re: [GNC] Summarizing cash flow report w.r.t. entries and exits (discounts)

Hi, under certain circumstances VAT can be treated as expense/income, e. g. in Germany when one’s only required to do cash based accounting. In that case payable output tax and refunds would be treated as income and input tax and vat payments are treated as expense. Kind regards Christian
