: Mark,

: On the ROI yield report, my 1-year portfolio ROI yield for the period ending August 11, 2004 is 10.78.

: On the Portfolio performance report, my portfolio yied is 11.22 for the period 8/10/2003 to 8/11/2004. Shouldn't these two numbers be exactly the same?

Hi Peter,

No, not quite... If you change your Portfolio Performance report to be
from 8/12/03 to 8/11/04, then yes, they would show the same yields. This
date range (8/12/03 - 8/11/04) is one year, since reports include the
gains on the beginning and end dates, inclusive. It is the same as if you
had a date range of 1/1/03 to 12/31/03, that is one year.

For your example, 8/10/03 - 8/11/04, that is 1 year plus 2 days. It includes
8/10 and 8/11 from both 2003 and 2004.

Thanks,
Mark
