CHAPTER 12 HOMEWORK #1 QUESTIONS (use notebook paper): 1. Why do corporations typically invest in the common stock (less than 20% of the outstanding shares) and preferred stock of other corporations? 2. Investments in common stock (less than 20% of the outstanding shares), and preferred stock are categorized as either trading securities or available for sale securities. Define these two categories. 3. Trading securities and available for sale securities are required to be reported on the financial statements at their fair market value. Why is this departure from the cost principle made? 4. What is the difference between a realized gain and an unrealized gain? 5.
