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 Stockholdersâ 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 âcancel outâ over time.
