1. The gain or loss is the difference between the portfolio cost and its fair value. The offset account for the gain or loss entry is the valuation allowance account.

2. Increase the investment and decrease Cash for the purchase price (Shares x Per share amount) plus brokerage fee.

Final Question

B. How are unrealized gains and losses treated differently for available-for-sale securities than for trading securities?

Unrealized gains and losses for available-for-sale securities are accumulated over time and reported as a credit (positive) or debit (negative) balance in the Stockholders Equity section. As a result, the changes in fair valueare not reflected on the income statement, as is the case with trading securities. Bypassing the income statement issupported on the grounds that available-for-sale securities will be held for alonger time than trading securities; thus, fluctuations in market prices havea greater opportunity to cancel out over time.
