Feature request

[Blade-5]

I am running version 0.9.2. First let me say WOW. I had been running
0.8.9 and liked it. But the new features in0.9 are amazing! Love the
forecasting. And having a 'Budget' system in there just makes sense. As
I went through, updating my accounts, and seeing what I could do with
the new program, I made my way to my Credit Card accounts. A new feature
(that I love) is the ability to add into the account a card limit as
well as a warning limit. But with this came an Idea. What about adding a
feature that asks for the APR and other such interest rates, so that the
program can one: automatically update the account balance with the
interest added each month. Or Two: use that info at the least, in the
forecasting feature so that when it calculates my net worth, it can take
into account, not just my scheduled payments, and my spending habbits,
but it can also take my interest rates into account.

Not really sure how feasable this would be, as I know sometimes APRs do
change. But it was a thought.

Hello Blade,
there was a feature request recently to create schedules to pay credit card based on the actual balance of the account.
If we add the APR to that, I think it would be great. As for forecast, if that is included in the schedules, then it would take all that into account.
Also, for example, my bank charges some "administrative fee" every month, so that should be included, as well.

Regards,
Alvaro
