Capital-gain distribution
A fund may pay a capital-gain distribution. Choose the short-term or long-term action. Cash increases and the Capital Gains (realized) category records the income. Share count does not change.
Steps
- Open Portfolio and choose the account.
- Set Action to Short-term capital-gain distribution or Long-term capital-gain distribution.
- Enter the cash amount and choose Record action.
If this goes wrong
A sale's realized gain is not this action. Use Sell shares for a sale.
