DavidC has given a good answer but I wonder if your q doesn't require 
more.

gnc can certainly record re-investment of income, in fact there is a 
whole chunk of the Tutorial and Concepts about DRIPs (I'm in the UK, we 
don't call them that here).

Yup.  you may already know this but the basic problem is that the fund 
manager controls the bid and offer (or equivalent buy and sell) prices, 
this is very different to a more liquid publicly quoted stock on an 
exchange.  if demand is high, the price is raised and vice versa

Tools / Price Editor / Fund / Add and look at the options carefully, in 
particular you want to know which Type of price you are recording as it 
can make a big difference with illiquid and artificially priced 
pseudo-stocks

The important thing to realize is that gnc can only record stuff (I 
suggest doing that as realistically as possible)

  , valuing that stuff is up to you :)
