Terminating Member Valuation
I'm not an accountant but serve as Treasurer of our
investment club. (Thank goodness for Bivio!) I'd
appreciate some help/advice.

Our club had a member terminate in October. I ran both a
Member Summary Report and a Member Performance Report (to
double-check her market value as of her valuation date of
10/09/02) and presented this figure at our October general
meeting. Both stated the same amount as the market value.
We voted and cut her a check for this valuation amount. Our
check date of 10/28/02 served as our transaction date.
(FYI: One report was run on 10/10/02 and the other as a
double-check on 10/14/02.)

I recently posted the month of October into Bivio. In
posting I've found that I'm off by 9 cents between the
actual check amount and Bivio's withdrawal amount that's
automatically calculated. Any clues as to how to handle or
what I may have done incorrectly?

I've attempted several times to run the same two reports for
10/09/02 and get a different figure now then I did back in
October. Why?

Thanks for the compliment, and we're happy to help.

My guess is that the dividends you received on 10/01/02 were entered
at the end of the month after you ran the initial valuations.

We can give you more detailed help if you mail support@bivio.com. We
don't recommend discussing your club's financials in public forums.

Cheers,
