I am happy to post some sample data to the developer list later today or
tomorrow, but I really think it must be my settings, because the steps
to reproduce are as simple as create a few transactions and select a
default report from the menu.

Interestingly the numbers in the accounts are all correct.

I will describe this in more detail later, because I have to leave now.

Thank you for your reply!
