Portfolio Performance - Bond Calculation ?

Questions on using, creating, or understanding data in Fund Manager reports.

Postby hipped1 » Tue Dec 23, 2025 4:13 am

I've noticed a strange result on the portfolio performance report for some bond holdings. The bonds were purchased and sold in 2025 and I would expect the gain amount to equal the interest received, but the result is much different. The attached portfolio performance report was from 1/1/25 through 12/22/25.

The purchase transaction (along with the creation of the investment) was completed through an import from E*trade and the redemption was manually entered as bond maturity transactions are not provided in the data feed from the broker. I don't see anything strange in the transaction data register, but perhaps there is something in the security setup which I need to review in order to have the report be accurate?

Thank you.
Mark

Hi hipped1,

If you look at the buy transaction, did you have a correct (not $0) "Value" recorded? If that isn't the problem, maybe you can email me one of the investment files or a screenshot of all the transactions in the Data Register.
Thanks,
Mark

Hi hipped1,

Thanks for sending the file. I sent you a reply via PM, but just to document this here... The reason was there is a Return of Capital and a Redemption, both for the $100K amount. This is the reason for the large gain. Eliminating the Return of Capital should resolve this.
Thanks,
Mark

Thank you for the quick review Mark. Appears the Etrade download feed for redemptions is creating issues here but now I know what to watch for an its an easy fix to delete the redemption transaction.
