    B. Available for sale securities

    Explanation:

    Available for sale securities refer to debt or equity instrument. They are purchased with a pre defined aim of selling them before their maturity, for profit earning. Such profit is usually a 'quick capital gain'. Apart from profit, they also assist for liquidity, repaying needs of companies.

    These equities are reported at 'fair value'. This implies that unrealised gains & losses are not included in earnings. They are rather recorded in a specific segregated item head 'accumulated other comprehensive income' of shareholder's equity.
