    C. Amortized cost; Fair value

    Explanation:

    Based on the information provided within the question it can be said that the Securities can be reported in two ways. Debt securities that are classified as Held-to-Maturity need to be reported as amortized costs, meaning a cost that is adjusted as it approaches face value. While Debt Securities that are classified as Available-for-Sale need to be reported at Fair Value.
