In GnuCash 2.19 I was at least able to export to HTML which gave me

Hi guys,
My issue is this: I'll provide an example: Note, I'm in Australia, so we
have franked (taxed) dividends that we claim a tax break on.
Total dividend $12; made up of
Franked dividend $10
Imput credit (tax credit) $2

Hello, xboxboy.magela:
You ask how to account for the $2 that has "vanished". This jumps out at
me as the core of the problem:
Dividend (franked): Dividend reinvestment account $10
Buy: stock purchase: 1 unit $8, total buy $8
If your dividend after franking is $10, and you buy stock for $8, t
If they take $10 for these shares then I would say your cost of share is
$10, not $8. The cost of share is what you pay for it, no matter what
absurd way the cost is calculated, so the money is not vanishing per se. In
this case you paid $10. You could then remove it from the price database
since y
Hi Jim,
that's just it, the $2 does 'vanish'. I don't see it, it's not passed to
me at that time, or any time in the future:
As for a line to account for that, I guess that's what I'm asking: How
do I create an account to absorb that $2, that then disappears into the
ether?
I hope that is

I have been clamoring for similar "enhancements" for many moons 😊... with

I would love a feature to move the description from the imported transaction

Are you sure the company isn't offering you a fractional share for the remaining

share purchase where the share is registered in the broker's name but the

Hi xboxboy.mageia,
In my experience, Australian companies usually retain the difference between
the total dividend and the value of the integer no of shares reinvested for you.
I track this value for each share in an asset account called

do anything with is that $10, the franking credit only applies at tax time.
Now are you talking about a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (DRP) situation where
your dividend gets reinvested in new shares of the same company? If t
