    The journal entries are as follows

    a. Unrealized Holding Gain or Loss Dr $1,310

    To Fair value Adjustment $1,310

    (Being the unrealized gain or loss is recorded)

    2. Cash $9,410

    Loss on Sale of Investment $490 ($9,900 - $9,410)

    To Equity Investment $9,900

    (Being the sale of the stock is recorded)

    3. Fair value Adjustment $1,020

    To Unrealized Holding Gain or Loss $1,020

    (Being the fair value adjustment is recorded)

    The computation is shown below:

    Stock Cost Fair Value Unrealized Gain (Loss)

    Clemson Corp. Stock $20,200 $19,410 - $790

    Buffaloes Co. stock $20,200 $20,700 $500

    Net unrealized gain (loss) - $290
