Correct Data Type for Distributions

[Ivan]

What is the appropriate Data Type to use for monthly distributions from a bond fund? I have been using Dividends, but I am wondering if Interest Income is more appropriate.

Thanks,
Ivan

Hi Ivan,

How does the bond fund describe the payments? I'd base it off that description. As far as performance numbers it really doesn't matter whether you call them dividends or interest income. The performance will be the same.
