Reconcile one asset at a time
Use quantities from the same period and account boundary. This worksheet does not calculate investment returns or tax.
Your comparison
Enter quantities and calculate.
How should I use this worksheet?
Set a consistent boundary before entering numbers: one asset, one set of accounts and the same opening and closing times. A fiat valuation on an account screen is not the asset quantity requested here.
- Use an opening quantity from the beginning of the period. Include only movements inside that period.
- A transfer between two accounts inside your boundary does not create additional assets for the combined set. Movements across that boundary belong in the appropriate flow.
- Use a consistent fee convention. If the outflow is already inclusive of fees, enter zero in the separate-fee field.
- Compare the actual closing quantity with the expected one. A positive difference means actual is higher; a negative difference means it is lower.
For example, 1,000 USDT opening plus 250 in, less 120 out excluding fees, less a 2 USDT fee, gives 1,128 USDT. An actual balance of 1,130 leaves a difference of 2. That is a starting point for investigation, not proof of a missing fee.
A zero difference does not establish completeness. Opposing missing entries can cancel out. Keep the source files and check the underlying entries before treating the period as reconciled.
