Explanation:
Investments held for trading are short-term investments in debt and stock securities. They are accounted for at fair value.
This implies that at the end of each reporting period, the difference between the book value of the investment and the fair value is adjusted either as gain or loss on investment. This adjusting entry increases or reduces the book value of the investment to its fair value. The gain or loss remains an unrealized gain or loss until the investment is sold.
