Available for sale securities

Amazing video, A friend of mine referred me to a financial adviser sometime ago and we got talking about investment and money. I started investing with $120k and in the first 2 months , my portfolio was reading $274,800. Crazy right!, I decided to reinvest my profit and gets more interesting. For over a year we have been working together making consistent profit just bought my second home 2 weeks ago and care for my family...

I’ve been forced to find additional sources of income as I got retrenched. I barely have time to continue trading and watch my investments since I had my second daughter. Do you think I should take a break for a while from the market and focus on other things or return whenever I have free time or is it a continuous process? Thanks...

Hello Farhat.. Many thanks for such a wonderful explanation. At 13:22 Amortized cost assumed to be reported at 91,500 while it is an AFS investment that should be reported at the original FV cost.

Why is’t at the time of sale of the debt security afs - you didn’t reverse its unrealized loss oci and fv adjustment at the time of sale? Also you didn’t consider the CECL approach for the loss?

[@AccountingLectures]

I will have a separate recording for reversing. Also, I will cover CECL separately.

Great explanation

[@angelicaspencer687]

I am a bit confused at 8:49 why the carrying value for calculating the unrealized gain/loss for December 31, 2011 is $106,732 and not $105,241. Because I thought the $106,732 would be the carrying value for December 31, 2010 not for December 31, 2011. Can you explain this please if you get the chance, thank you!

[@abdelhakimessaadi9577]

What you have said is not correct. The bond book value on 12/31/2011 was $106,732.

Why are we doing Amortization even for Available for Sale Bond?

[@oversol5469]

I find it interesting that u use 6/12 to represent half. Most would just use 1/2 but if was we want to be creative we could even chose 7/14 or 14/28

[@AccountingLectures]

To represent half of the year: 6 out of 12 month. farhatlectures.com/
