Description Micha Lenk 2011-05-13 15:42:14 UTC 
This is Debian bug #626574 (http://bugs.debian.org/626574) reported by Daniel Dickinson <daniel@cshore.neomailbox.net>:

For the Income Statement and Profit & Loss,  Total Income and Total Expenses are calculated correctly, however the finally summary line "Net income for Period" does not equal "Total Income - Total Expenses".  At least for a one month report for an arbitrary (selected via calendar) month.

-----

At least that seems to be the case, given that I had a voided cheque
(original for $75) that is throwing off my total balance, and the
expense it was part of was correctly calculated.  Unfortunately
checking it against my bank balance from back then because the
unreconciled balance vs. reconciled balance from that month would be a
nightmare to calculate.

Insert below the '.....' following line:

Voided transactions still affect Balance Sheet report
Comment 2 Joachim Breitner 2011-06-05 21:21:41 UTC 
I can confirm this issue. The “net income” changed when I modified the setting of the report with options Average, Newest etc., but none of the different values were correct. This was with 2.4.5.

To the reporters:

Do you still see this issue with a later GnuCash release?
If so: Can you attach an example gnucash file so it can easily be reproduced?

thanks in advance...

Reassign version to 2.4.x so that individual 2.4 versions can be retired.
