Rapid Airlines records interest at the effective rate and elected the option to report these bonds at their fair value. On December 31, 2018, the fair value of the bonds was $224 million as determined by their market value in the over-the-counter market. Rapid determined that $1,000,000 of the increase in fair value was due to a decline in general interest rates. Required:
