Portfolio Revaluation

This function can be started in menu Bookkeeping > Portfolio > Revaluate.

To revaluate, prices of stock have to be entered for the concerning date.

If stock with a different value than the bookkeeping value exist, currency rates for the concerning date have to be entered as well.

 

On revaluation unrealized results are calculated.

When stock are sold these unrealized results are reversed and realized results will be calculated instead.

 

When in the settings the option Do not book unrealised gain is set the unrealised gain on stock and currencies will not be calculated.

 

An example of calculated unrealised result:

The bookkeeping currency is EUR, whereas the price of stock is in USD.

A buy of 10.000,00 EUR took place at 19-7-2003, a number of 112,5 shares.

 

Revaluation at 21-7-2003 gives the following unrealized  result:

 

1. Unrealized result on effects

 

19-07-2003 price of stock in USD: 80,00000

21-07-2003 price of stock in USD: 81,00000

 

This is a difference of 1 USD per share, in EUR 1/0.9 (against the rate rate on date of purchase) = 1.11

The unrealized result on shares is: 112,5 * 1,11 = 124,87 EUR

 

2. Unrealized result on currency

 

The value of the stock is at 21-7-2003: 81.000000 USD

 

The currency rate was at 7-19-2003 0.900000 and at 7-21-2003 0.987000.

against rate on 19-7-2003:  81,000000 / 0,900000 = 90 EUR

against rate on 21-7-2003: 81,000000 / 0,987000 = 82,066 EUR

the difference per share on 21-7-2003 in EUR is 82,066 - 90 = -7,934

 

The unrealized result on currency is: 112,5 * -7.934 is -892,57 EUR

 

3. Total of unrealized result

 

The total of unrealized result on effects and currency is: 124,87 - 892,57 = -767,70 EUR
