The account report should show that as well (along with Total Credits) at the 
bottom but you need to set the ’Totals’ checkbox, but what you are describing 
sounds more like the Transaction Report.

It is very powerful with respect to reporting just the transactions you want 
over custom date ranges and with various sorting methods. (and *not* limited to 
one account if you don’t want that limitation) It can also filter transactions 
that *aren’t* also affecting some other account.

Finally, there is also a Comparison Transaction Report (not certain of the 
name) that is still in development that you can find lurking in this list’s 
archives from Chris Lamm. I think he posted the files some time late last year 
or early this year. It shows you custom periods where you can compare expense 
amounts to each other. I played with it a bit and it was very helpful in 
determining my budgets. (more so than the budget report)

Regards,
Adrien
