: I am confused (as usual :))by the Distr number I am getting on the Investment Performance Reporet. My initial investment was $34,405.12 and I had 2 distributions (reinvested) totaling $290.71. The report is giving 0.42 under the Distribution column. Shouldn't it be $290.71? Also, it is showing the Beg Nav as being interpolated, but the number is the actual buy price. Why is it showing as interpolated? I thought it only interped when a number was not availble on a given day.

: Thanks

Hi John,

In this report, values are all on a "per share" basis. The Distribution column
shows distributions in per share values. So, you may have received
$290.71, but owned about 692 shares. This would give a per share distribution
of 0.42. This 0.42 figure directly relates to the share price figures, so
you can see relatively speaking how much the investment paid in distributions.

The price from the beginning report date is actually obtained from the
closing of the prior day. So, if your report started on 4/1, you would
need to have a price recorded on 3/31, or else it will be interpolated.
The "beginning" price is the price as of the start of the beginning report
date, not the price at the end of the day on the report start date.

Thanks,
Mark
