Interest rates were quite volatile that year and so were the fair values of Mason's bond investment (an asset) and loan (a liability): 2.25 points Fair Value 201 Bond Investment Loan January 1 $ 500, 000 $500, 000 Book March 31 450, 000 465, 000 June 30 480, 000 493, 000 September 30 510, 000 504, 000 December 31 485, 000 495, 000 Print Required: References 1.

Suppose that Mason uses conventional amortized cost accounting for the loan. The loan principal is due in five years. Ignore interest on the loan to simplify the problem. What will be the loan's carrying value at the end of each quarter? 3. Suppose that instead Mason elects to use the GAAP fair value option permitted by FASB ASC Topic 825. All changes in the fair values of the loan are due to changes in general interest rates. What dollar impact will this change have on reported profits each quarter?
