12.20

a.  Sale of marketable securities during 2008: Proceeds of $14,000; gain on sale is $4,000 = $14,000 – $10,000, so acquisition cost was $10,000.

b.  Carrying value at time of sale was $13,000, so unrealized holding gain at time of sale was $3,000 = $13,000 – $10,000.

c.  The ending balance of Net Unrealized holding Gains was $2,000 less at the end of 2008 than at the beginning, while the unrealized holding gain on the securities sold was $3,000. The sale reduced the balance by $3,000. Since the ending balance declined by only $2,000, the securities on hand must have increased during the year by $1,000, so the net decline is $2,000 = $3,000 – $1,000.

d.  The Marketable Securities account increased by $8,000 = $195,000 – $187,000 during 2008. The sale reduced the account by $13,000 and the unrealized holding gain on the securities held at the end of the year increased the balance by $1,000; see Part c. above. A net increase of $9,000 after a reduction of $12,000 means the cost of new securities is $20,000 = $8,000 + $12,000.
