Thanks, this follows. However, could you explain why Assets:Accounts
Receivable contains 11,500 GBP?

In the payment, but would be grateful if you could elucidate. I'd expect the
following:

Assets 80 GBP
Assets:Accounts Receivable 0
Assets:Accounts Receivable:GBP 0
Assets:Accounts Receivable:HKD 0
Assets:Current Assets:Checking Account: 80 GBP
Income 80 GBP
Income:Sales:HKD 1000
