Description cppljevans 2014-02-23 20:45:36 UTC 
On url:

http://www.gnucash.org/docs/v2.4/C/gnucash-guide/invest-dividends1.html#invest-dividendreinvest

the text says:

  If the first dividend is $.29/share, enter $53.38 in the share price and
  100*.29 in the Buy cell.

However, the .png graphic shows $53.8833 share price.

The text should be changed to be consistent with the graphic.

This bug should be fixed [1]. I also made some minor changes to improve the paragraph.
