The %Gain figures are all based on "Out Of Pocket" calculations, where the %Gain-I looks at changes between two dates. %Gain-I starts with the value as of a certain date, which is often different than the out of pocket cost basis. : 2) Would %Gain-C be the same as %Gain-I? No, one uses the out of pocket cost basis for currently owned shares, and the other uses the starting value. : 3) If you were lucky / smart enough to realize more than the OOP cost, would the %Gain become negative? Yes. : 4) Is the ROI yield the annualized %Gain-I? No. The ROI yield is the time and value weighted return. All of the %Gain type figures are not time/value weighted. For more on yield calculations, see: http://www.fundmanagersoftware.com/help/yields_roi.html : 5) Is the Fund Performance yield the annualized %Gain-F? No. See the above answer. The ROI yields are your time/value weighted returns based on your invested dollars. The Fund Performance yields are the time/value weighted returns based on the intrinsic investment's share price and distributions/share. The FP yields ignore when/how you invested in that security, and report on just that investment itself. The ROI yields show how well your invested money performed. You can control whether or not yields are annualized. See "Options / General Preferences... / Yields". Thanks,
