Entry Question - Mutual Fund Reorganization

Corporate Acquisition

Thanks Dan but this is a Mutual Fund transaction and "Capital Acquisition" is not available - only available for "Stocks". Unless I'm still missing something?

2) is the pertinent account designated "Single Mutual Fund"? If so, TURN THAT OFF! It causes more problems (such as this) than it's worth. CorpAcq is DEFINATELY available for mutual funds in a "regular" investment account.

DB -

2) How do you "turn that off" if the investment is already in play?

I'm using 2005 H&B so, in this aspect, your's should function exactly the same.

Thanks but there is no line indicating "Single Mutual Fund" in the Account Attributes box!

I'm starting to wonder if Deluxe (which I was initially mixing up with Premier) just doesn't support the "Corp Acq" transaction ... which it's kinda looking like.

In that case, you might be limited to a "Removed - Shares Removed" (aka, a ShrsOut) transaction(s) for your entire holding, followed by a "Add - Shares Added" (aka, a ShrsIn) for the new holding to establish the new position. I don't know if you'll have to do this lot by lot for the input side if this is in a taxable account or if you can do it all at once. (If it's in a non-taxable account -- say an IRA -- it really doesn't matter). You can establish the "total cost" of the position (or, of the individual lot) on the ShrsIn transaction.

IF the fund is in a taxable account AND if you've got a significant number of lots, the pain factor of all of this might make upgrading to

Be SURE to backup before doing any of this so you've got an easy way to reverse things should you change you mind about the particular approach.

Thanks Dan - I ended up starting from square one - reentered the transactions after redoing the Fund and eliminating the Single Mutual Fund. OK now - and I learned my lesson! THANKS again!
