If given a period flag, renders a multi-column balance with the same format as
`balance`, with asset and liability totals as well as an overall total if

This command shows normally historical end-balance reports, but for flexibility, also
accepts `--cumulative` and `--change` to display cumulative ending balances and
changes in reporting periods.
With a [reporting interval](#reporting-interval), multiple columns
will be shown, one for each report period.
As with [multicolumn balance reports](#multicolumn-balance-reports),
you can alter the report mode with `--change`/`--cumulative`/`--historical`.
