: Mark, I've probably asked this before, but I can't find it in help or my back files. How are we to handle accrued interest when we buy a bond. Ex: bond cost is $10,000, commission is $20, accrued interest is $900, total transaction coming out of cash account is $10,920. Where does the $900 get entered; not as commission, obviously, and not as purchase price, I think.

Hi Joe,

Can you give me some more details of this transaction? If this is money
that you're paying initially, it sounds like this would be part of the
purchase price of the bonds.

Thanks,
Mark
