Explanation / Answer

As per US GAAP, trading securities and AFS securitires should be recognized at Fair Market Value.

a) Trading Securities should be recognized at FMV i.e $60,000(20,000+15,000+25,000) on 12/31/04.

    Codification Topic - 320 is applicable for Accounting for Investments in Equity and Debt. Trading Securities     should be recognized at FMV because these are held for regular sale and purchase hence intended for sale in the short term. Also the gain or loss arised from these securities should be transferred to Profit & Loss A/c.

b) AFS securities should be recognized at FMV because these are also intended for sale in the near future. AFS are those securities which are not held for trading or held to maturity.

hence, the amount of recognition for AFS securities will be - $250,000+60,000 = $310,000 on 12/31/04

c) Journal Entries :

For Trading Securities :

1.   When purchased during the year 2004, these were recognized at cost. The entry was:

Investments in Company A   A/c Dr.    25,000

Investments in Company B A/c   Dr.    13,000

Investments in Company C   A/c   Dr.     35,000

                                                       To Bank A/c                   73,000

      ( For Investments Purchased)

2.   On 12/31/04 :

     Investments in Company B    A/c   Dr.     2,000                                      (15,000-13,000)

     Profit & Loss A/c            Dr.    13,000

                                     To Investments in Company A A/c     5,000            (25,000-20,000)

                                     To Investments in Company C A/c     10,000          (35,000-25,000)

   ( For Investments recognized at FMV at the year end and difference amount has been charged to P&L a/c)

For AFS Securitires:

1. On 12/31/04 :

   The Value of Investments in X and Y as on 12/31/03 were 230,000 and 50,000 respectively. The value as on 12/31/04 are 250,000 and 60,000 respectively. Hence the unrealized gain on X will be 250,000-230,000 = 20,000 and on Y will be 60,000-50,000 = 10,000. The entry will be :

Investment in X   A/c   Dr.       20,000

Investment in Y   A/c   Dr.       10,000

               To Other Comprehensive Income A/c**               30,000

** As per US GAAP, the gain on AFS securities should be transferred to Other Comprehensive Income (OCI) rather than earnings.
