Capital loss on deposit

[Ian K]

You can show this by setting up an Expense Account. You could call it
Expenses:Capital Loss for example. When the loss is taken you would make a
transfer of the lost amount from the deposit account to the expense account.
You could alternatively, as it's (hopefully) a one-off event, set the
Capital Loss account as as Equity Account, e.g. Equity:Capital Loss. Then it
won't show up as an expense, it will just reduce the equity.
