Abstract
We show that a number of pullback diagrams appear naturally in the study of preordered Grothendieck groups. The passage of projective modules from a ring R to a factor ring R/I turns out to be particularly good for a certain class of ideals, which we call almost trace ideals. We generalize to arbitrary rings a result by Goodearl concerning the lattice of the directed convex subgroups of K0(R). Finally, we show that a variant
(I) of the Grothendieck group of I, introduced by Quillen, has an easy description in terms of projective modules when I is an almost trace ideal.
