The chief accountant of Arantxa tells you that Arantxa Corporation holds these investments with the intention of selling them in order to earn short-term profits from appreciation in their prices and accounts for them using the FV-NI model, with no separate reporting of dividends and other types of FV-NI investment income and losses.
Assume that Arantxa Corporation follows IFRS 9.
