Hi Thomas,<br>
let us assume we bought a property some years ago.<br>
We paid 1000 for it, created an asset account NEWASSET in KMM and
valued it 1000.<br>
<br>
The market value today is estimated to be 1100 and accordingly we
want to adjust the old value to 1100 in KMM.<br>
This is easily accomplished by creating an income category "thanks
to market".<br>
But then each income and expense report would show an extra
income/expense in the respective month/year.<br>
<br>
This is correct in a way but does NOT quite reflect the reality
because the 100 extra would only turn to cash if and when that
property is made to money = being sold.<br>
<br>
My perception is that the 100 is only a conditional income and thus
quite different compared to other incomes like salary, sales, bets
and so on.<br>
Instead it is an increase of that very asset's value (for the time
being this is nothing more than just reflected on paper).<br>
<br>
Opening the account NEWASSET and booking the 100 into itself is
permitted by KMM but only if the Category is left unassigned (KMM
only offers "Income" or "Expense" whereas "Asset" would be needed if
following my perception).<br>
Everything looks alright and nothing happens but there is this
warning triangle.<br>
<br>
For fussy people like myself this is a nuisance.<br>
Is there any other way in KMM to increase/decrease an asset's value
without it being reported as income/expense?<br>
<br>
Cheers!<br>
