Problems Running Report for Previous Year

Quoting Mike or Penny Novack <stepbystepfarm at mtdata.com>:

Just a point of clarification; the Balance Sheet report is definitely
a report "as of some date", but it DOES ask for a "start date" so
that it can compute the "retaining earnings".  This is due to the
fact that gnucash doesn't really have true Period support and doesn't
"close the books".
