However that brings me to a total cost of 0,03 which is no good</p></div>Nick Pelltag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494241102021-10-07T16:27:59Z2021-10-07T16:27:59Zadd investments at zero cost i.e. increase stock quantity at no cost<div><p>So what was the market value when you received them? My understanding is that even as a gift, your cost basis is the market value. For example: if they were market value £1 but you received as a free gift, then you should ‘buy’ them as £1. If you sell them later for £2 then your gain is £1 and not £2 ?? To do this I have a fake category where I put anything like this.</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)tag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494241102021-10-07T17:28:27Z2021-10-07T17:28:27Zadd investments at zero cost i.e. increase stock quantity at no cost<div><p>Thank you Stuart, but that won't work for me. I really need to have the TRUE cost, i.e. what actually I paid for for those cryptos.<br>
If nothing else come up, I could just enter the minimum possible cost. e.g. 0,001 and then make another entry of MiscInc on that crypto for the same amount. In this way the balance cost should be zero<br>
What you think of this solution?</p></div>Nick Pelltag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/494241102021-10-07T17:48:34Z2021-10-07T17:48:34Zadd investments at zero cost i.e. increase stock quantity at no cost<div><p>yes, or even 0.00000001... and something like a sell 0 shares for the cost might work to adjust the CB... 👍</p></div>Stuart Beesley (Mr Toolbox)
