: A stock I owned (company A) was just acquired by company B. For each share of company A I owned I now receive 1.125 shares of company B. However, the transaction was a tax-free pooling of interest so my basis will still be computed based on A. I want to track B with the original basis and I also want to follow the charts and returns as if it were 1 company. Any ideas?

Hi Bob,
Just record a 1.125 for 1 split in this investment. You can then also
adjust the name/symbol to be that of company B under "Investment Properties...".

Thanks,
Mark
