Hi Gang, I kept getting some minor screwy results with the Vealie spreadsheet and finally figured it out. Blind, just blind to anything beyond what I was focusing on so I didn't notice what was up.

It uses fractional shares, not whole shares. Yeah, mutual funds deal in fractional shares but the brokers like TDAmeritrade don't so I'm going to divide the Cash into two columns, one for the whole number of shares held in VFISX and another column for cash cash and then a total of the two. Then I realized that the number of shares held was also fractional, both for AIM and B&H. The AIM fractional shares was giving PC numbers like $6553.494291. Yikes

Best,

Allen
