My company has changed 401K service providers and I have a problem I can't
figure out. For a number of reasons that seemed reasonable up to now I have
enter many transaction by having ledger calculate the number of shares of
a commodities  like this:

2012/03/27 * (DD) Earnings
    Assets:Investments:401K:Deferred    (198.82/106.30 VIFSX) @ $106.30
    Assets:Investments:401K:Matching    (99.40/106.30 VIFSX) @ $106.30
    Assets:Investments:401K:Profit Sharing  (6.38/106.30 VIFSX) @ $106.30
    Income:Exempt:Dividends

This was fine up until now.  I want to sell all shares out of an account,
but since I have used division there are MANY digits of precision that I
don't really want to deal with.

I sold out all the shares (to 4 digits of precision) but have the following:

         $ 11144.45
       -0.0001 VIFSX
        0.0001 VIPSX  Assets:Investments:401K

Those remnants of VIPSX and VIFSX are annoying.  Is there a way to really
zero out the commodities in that account?

I have tried:

2012/12/28 * 401K Balance Adjustment
  Assets:Investments:401K  = $11144.45
  Equity:Adjustments

But that doesn't get rid of the other commodities in the account.

I tried adding another balancing transaction:

2012/12/28 * 401K Balance Adjustment
  Assets:Investments:401K  = 0 VIFSX
  Equity:Adjustments

But that just gives errors.

Any ideas here?
