Final Question
2. If the bond portfolio is classified as available for sale, what impact would this have on financial statement disclosure?
If the bonds are classified as available-for-sale securities, then the portfolio of bonds would need to be to be selector 1
kept at their original cost
adjusted to fair value
. This would be accomplished by using a valuation allowance account and an unrealized gain (loss) account as part of selector 2
other income and expenses
stockholders equity
. If the fair value were selector 3
lesser
greater
than the cost of the bond portfolio, the two accounts would be positive, and thus added to investments and stockholders equity, respectively. If the fair value were selector 4
greater
less
than the cost of the bond portfolio, the two accounts would be negative , and thus subtracted from investments and stockholders equity, respectively.
