Vanguard bond fund liquidation

[ Q2 03 - Q4 05 Archive ] [ Current Message Board ] [ Archives ] [ Search ]

Hi -

How's the best way to handle this transaction:

In the middle of the month, I transferred all shares out of a Vanguard bond fund. Vanguard records the sale as 2 transactions, both with the same date:
#1 - sell all shares
#2 - issue an unreinvested dividend for the partial month

For #2, I tried going into FM and entering an unreinvested dividend, but I get a message saying FM can't calculate distributions per share since I owned 0 shares on that date. FM prompts me to enter my own value for 'distribution per share'. However, no matter what I enter, FM changes it to an absurdly high value: 24,101,294,880,849.92

Suggestions?

Thanks
Bill
