: My broker, includes reinvested distributions when calculating gain or loss. For tax purposes his calculations are correct. How can I make FM gain graph agree with my broker's results so that for stocks not held by the broker I can provide accurate tax info. and have a better picture of the real difference between what I invest and it's value?

Hi Art,

FM's gain graph plots your "Out of Pocket" cost. When you have a reinvested
distribution it does not change your out of pocket cost. Fund Manager does
of course include reinvested distributions when calculating gains/losses
for capital gain reports. There is no option to make the gain graph
plot a different formula for gain.

Thanks,
Mark
