Thank you for helping me. It is quite possible I missed something in your explanation. I do that a lot. It is one reason I appreciate Jim DeLaHunt so much. Let me explain what I think I understand. It was my impression that you were saying that when either the “Computing cost of goods sold” calculations or the “Average Cost price source” differ from the “the trial balance report” calculations the books would be out of balance. I’d agree with that and that GnuCash should not make any changes in these cases. If the user's books are out of balance it's their fault, not GnuCash's. What I do not yet understand is if GnuCash considers a price per share of 10.89 to be a precise figure, why GnuCash does not calculate 1,377.41 * 10.89 = 15,000.00 for Jeff. If GnuCash doesn’t, would we consider making a change to GnuCash to allow it?
