Needs to track cost-base in Home Currency, when purchases are made in foreign currency using manually entered or downloaded historical exchange rates. (USD/CDN). Does either the Canadian and/or American version support this. Also to track Interest/Dividend income for tax purposes in Home (CDN) currency.

    Any one account in Q can only use a single currency.  So, if I'm correctly understanding your request, there's no way to track the basis of a security in USD while tracking everything else about the security in CAD.  You'd need 2 separate accounts.
