How to get summary journal entries

Hi,

I'm a beginner and I'd like to examine how sales and expenses change assets
and liabilities (a.k.a ."summary journal entry", see e.g. Accounting
workbook for dummies by J. Tracey, link to google books below).

I found that the cash flow report almost gets me there, but not quite. If I
choose the income accounts I'm interested in, it lists the affected assets,
but it doesn't show how much each income account is contributing
individually (if I understand correctly, the sum of selected income
accounts should then equal the difference between "Money In" and "Money
Out".)

Is there a way to get summary journals in gnucash?

If not, would it be easy to implement this in the existing cash flow
reports?

Thanks for your help!
