    Journal Entry

    Explanation:

    The Journal entry is shown below:-

    Unrealized Holding Gain or Loss Dr, $360,000

    To Estimated Liability on Purchase Commitment $360,000

    (Being unrealized Holding Gain or Loss is recorded)

    Working note:-

    = $1.92 million - $1.56 million

    = $360,000

    So, at the end of the current fiscal year we simply debited Unrealized Holding Gain or Loss and credited Estimated Liability on Purchase Commitment.
