    Explanation:

    Trading Available for Sale as of December 31, 2018

    Cost $60,000 $110,000

    Fair value $54,000 $107,500

    Income statements includes unrealized holding loss on trading securities = $60,000 - $54,000 = $6,000

    Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Shareholders' Equity includes unrealized holding loss on securities available for sale = $110,000 - $107,500 = $2,500
