<ol>
<li>Sum the balances of selected accounts<br></li>
<li>Divide or multiply that sum by a stipulated factor (in my case 1/2)<br></li>
<li>Take that product and place it as the balance of a designated account (in my case a debit account that would decrease my net worth).</li>

Create a sub account underneath your own asset house account, and also underneath your bank account.<br>
Do create the same sub accounts for your wife's asset accounts<br>
In your sub accounts, create a transaction to transfer (fake) money from your sub account to her sub accounts.<br>
Include your accounts/sub accounts in your new worth report, but exclude her accounts/sub accounts.</p>
<p>I do this every year allocate income between accounts for my tax reports... The good thing is that you can exclude the sub accounts from reports if you want the real data, and even delete the sub accounts if you don't like them. They also do not affect reconciliation....</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)
