Re: [GNC] [GNC-dev] Translators: String Freeze for 4.7

[Giuseppe Foti]

Hi, in weblate there are some strings with comments requiring to fix
sources. Some have been there for months.
Can someone check those strings before fixing?

you are right. I was so busy on the docs, I missed the string freeze
deadline this time.

> Can someone check those strings before fixing?

As the translation project already got it's tarball, I would prefer to
delay fixes after the next release.

Sorry
Frank

[GNC] Calculating interest rates

[Steve Hill]

Despite much Googling I haven't been able to find anything explaining 
how to calculate this...


I know:
 - The balance of a savings account at the start of the year;
 - The amounts and dates of payments into the account; and
 - The amount of interest paid at the end of the year.

I want to calculate the percent of interest received, assuming that the 
account compounds daily.


If there were no payments into the account it would be easy 
(interest_amount/start_balance=interest_percent), but I can't figure out 
how to take account of irregular payments into the account throughout 
the year.


Thanks.

Re: [GNC] Cash Accounting Method

[David G. Pickett via gnucash-user]

I am no accountant, but it seems to me you could enter the invoiced 
transactions for the future due date, not reconciled, update the date and 
reconcile when paid, delete them or push them out when unpaid, possibly with a 
late fee.  Like paper books, the media should not constrain the accounting 
method.  Does cash basis need a segregated place for transactions invoiced but 
not paid?  You can create a parallel account category or tree to hold them, 
updating the invoice when paid to a new date and other side account in the 
usual income tree.

You're looking for internal rate of return. Most spreadsheets have an XIRR 
function that takes an array of dates and cash flows along with a starting 
guess and calculates the actual daily rate. The documentation for LibreOffice's 
version is at 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Calc_Functions/XIRR

Re: [GNC] Calculating interest rates

[William Prescott]

Maybe not the most efficient way to do it, but it sounds trivial to iterate 
through the days of the year, calculating and crediting the interest every day 
based on the daily balance (incremented on days with a deposit). At the same 
time keep a running sum of the daily interest, then use your formula with the 
sum of all the interest payments.

Not something GnuCash could do, but easy with ruby/python/perl/php or any other 
language. Even excel/numbers could do it with a row for every day.
