Report to locate Unrealized Gains

[david.carlson.417]

My understanding from years ago in the 2.4 series was that one should put all the expenses and gains into split lines of the same transation so GnuCash could assume that they were related.

In other words, the Balance Sheet report was off by the total fees, reduced by the initial cost basis

What were the counter-accounts for the commissions and fees?

I'm not at my computer right now, but I believe they are something like: 
Expenses:Investment Expenses:CommissionsExpenses:Investment Expenses:Fees
Although I'm not sure what effect that would have on the situation. As you've noted elsewhere, it's not like the program could know that commissions and fees are part of the calculation, or from which accounts those charges originate. Or can it?
