I noticed when I ran this report that some of the numbers seem to 
consolidate all instances of a particular security regardless of which 
account it is held in (using version 2.0.1).  This is then reported as 
though it belonged to a particular account.  Is this what you are seeing?

It's also possible that you may need to fiddle with the report options 
as to how it obtains pricing information.

I'm afraid I haven't yet taken the time to search to see if it is a 
known bug.  If it hasn't been reported yet, it needs to be.
