You should remember to include gnucash-user at gnucash.org in your replies.

I'm a software developer, not an accountant, so I really can't advise 
you on how to handle this.  I know that when I had a 401K with employee 
and employer contributions I had one account for the 401K and I added 
funds to this from two income accounts.  It seems to me that having two 
accounts is an unnecessary complication, but as I said I'm not an 
accountant.
