This is correct, and does the intended things for income and expense accounts.
The way i see it, for the purpose of budget reports bank accounts
should be treated like income accounts, but for display the balances
should not be reversed since they represent actual balances.

I was trying to tinker with the scheme code in budget.scm
(/<install-path>guile-modules/gnucash/report/standard-reports/ (I;m
using Gnucash 2.4.10 from the debian stable repos).
Shouldn't the "if" condition on line 343* ) check for income, bank,
and others before computing dif-numeric-val?

Thanks and Regards,
Abhijit
