    investment on debt securities 945,000

    Explanation:

    purchase for 910,000 the bond + interest accrued

    1,000,000 x 0.08 / 2 = 40,000 interest revenue

    910,000 - 40,000 = 870,000 investment on bonds

    At year-end we should adjsut the bond to the market value:

    945,000 - 870,000 = 75,000

    investment in debt securities 75,000

    unrealized gain on securities 75,000

    Balance sheet:

    investment on debt securities 945,000
