Unfortunately, we don't really consider this broken. Rather, we believe that it
is better to use different categories for debits and credits. In short, all
values in category calculations are considered to be positive as you have
discovered. This allows categories for debits to be positive. For example, your
medical expenses for 2009 should appear as $400, not -$400 in the summaries. Is
this the wrong way of looking at this?

Subject: [moneytalks] REQUEST FOR FIX
following some valuable input from Steve, I'm writing to ask if consideration
could be given to fix a problem I have with MT. The problem is that, if I have
debits and credits in the same category, when I do a category summary, the
figures are just added - irrespective of whether they are debits or credits.
For example, if I spend £100 on electricity, and then get a refund of £20, the
electricity category shows £120 not £80.
I think that this would be a valuable feature, unless there's currently a way
of doing this which isn't too fiddly.
Thanks,
Richard
