Performance Report

I'm little confused about 'Portfolio Performance' reports. I'll explain this with an example ..

Here is a snapshot of the performance report related to one of my accounts:

------------------------------------------------------------------
Inv. Name--Beg Value--Invested--Distrib--End value--Gain--%Gain-I
------------------------------------------------------------------
Fund 1 | 0.00 | -119.94 | 0.00 | 0.00 | 119.94 | 4.00
Fund 2 | 0.00 | -114.58 | -10.00 | 0.00 | 104.58 | 3.35
Fund 3 | 0.00 | 4224.52 | 0.00 | 4378.56 | 154.04 | 3.65
------------------------------------------------------------------
Account | 0.00 | 3990.00 | -10.00 | 4378.56 | 378.56 | 3.66
------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm actually confused with last column (bottom-right) where it shows Account %Gain as 3.66%, which actually should be some where around 9.5%. Am I missing something here?

Note: As you can observe from the above snapshot I have sold Funds 1 and 2 and I only have Fund 3 in this account. Also, at any point of time I had only one fund in this account -- meaning, I bought Fund 1 and sold it to buy Fund 2 and after a while sold Fund 2 to buy Fund 3.

Thanks in advance,

- SPS
