Consider the following two separate events for a company during the year: 1. Loss on sale of investments = $30. 2. Unrealized gain on investment from increase in fair value = $20. The company reports the unrealized gain as a component of other comprehensive income. By how much would these two events affect net income and comprehensive income, ignoring tax effects?

A.) Net income = $(30); Comprehensive income = $(10).

Explanation:

First, the multiple choices to the question

A.) Net income = $(30); Comprehensive income = $(10).

B.) Net income = $(30); Comprehensive income = $20.

C.) Net income = $0; Comprehensive income = $(10).

D.) Net income = $(10); Comprehensive income = $20.

The question is to determine the effect of the two events listed on the Net Income as well as the comprehensive income

First, we look at event one:

The loss of sales of investment = #30

The effect of this is to debit the income statement because it is a net loss of $30. It brings a reduction to the income side. Income will usually have a credit balance, but a net loss reduces income therefore, it will be debited.

Second, the Unrealized gain on investment from increase in fair value = $20

The effect is $10 which represents $30 from the loss - $20 from the unrealised gain. It will however, also decrease the comprehensive income by the $10.

due to the changes the federal reserve is making the unused reserves will impact the economy by them facing inflation. inflation is definfed as the increase in pricing of a good or service but the decline of the value of money used for purchasing those items. when the economy has a high inflation rate, they are subject to money loss and hurt on the economy.
