Question

Help Save LED Corporation owns $1.950,000 of Branch Pharmaceuticals bonds and classifies its investment as securities available for sale. The market price of Branch's bonds fell by $1,400,000, due to concerns about one of the company's principal drugs. The concerns were justified when the FDA banned the drug. $100,000 of that decline in value already had been included in Ocl as a temporary unrealized loss in a prior period. LED views $960,000 of the $1,400,000 loss as related to credit losses, and the other $440,000 as noncredit losses. LED does not plan to sell the investment and does not think it is more likely than not that it will have to sell the investment before fair value recovers. kipped What journal entries should LED record to account for the decline in market value in the current period?
