How do I create a calendar year expense report?

[Michael Wagner]

I tracked all of my personal income/expenses this year in gnucash, with 
the goal of being able to answer questions like, "How much did I spend 
on gas this year?"

I am trying to figure out how to create a report of all of my income for 
the year. I assume that this is a simple task that a lot of people want 
to do, but  I can't figure out how to do it.

I tried generating a, "Income &  Expense" Cash Flow report, with dates 
01/01/2015 - 12/31/2015, but many of the numbers are wrong. For example, 
the Cash Flow report days that I spent $3.64 on Auto:Gas, but the 
account (correctly) says I spent $3638.40.

How do I generate a report of all my expenses for a calendar year in 
gnucash?

Don't accountants generally want to do this? Am I thinking of question 
in the wrong way?
