### **2. Required Calculations**
#### **(a) Net unrealized gain or loss at December 31, 2025 for 2025 investments (Arrow & Wabash):**
**Formula:**
Net Unrealized Gain/Loss = Total Fair Value (Dec 31) - Total Cost
- **Total cost (2025 investments):** $96,000 (Arrow) + $78,000 (Wabash) = **$174,000**
- **Total fair value (Dec 31, 2025):** $77,000 (Arrow) + $87,000 (Wabash) = **$164,000**
**Calculation:**
\[
\text{Net Unrealized Gain/Loss} = \$164,000 - \$174,000 = \boxed{(\$10,000)\ \text{(Unrealized Loss)}}
\]
---
#### **(b) Net unrealized gain or loss to be reported at December 31, 2025 for all investments (including Fargo):**
- **Total cost (all investments):** $174,000 + $396,000 = **$570,000**
- **Total fair value (all investments):** $164,000 + $525,000 = **$689,000**
**Calculation:**
\[
\text{Net Unrealized Gain/Loss} = \$689,000 - \$570,000 = \boxed{\$119,000\ \text{(Unrealized Gain)}}
\]
---
#### **(c) Net unrealized gain or loss to be reported at December 31, 2024 for all investments (including Fargo):**
- **Wabash stock was not owned before 2025.**
- **Arrow stock cost/fair value at Dec 31, 2024:** Cost = $96,000, Fair value = $82,000
- **Fargo stock at Dec 31, 2024:** Cost = $396,000, Fair value = $453,000
- **Total cost (2024):** $96,000 (Arrow) + $396,000 (Fargo) = **$492,000**
- **Total fair value (2024):** $82,000 (Arrow) + $453,000 (Fargo) = **$535,000**
**Calculation:**
\[
\text{Net Unrealized Gain/Loss} = \$535,000 - \$492,000 = \boxed{\$43,000\ \text{(Unrealized Gain)}}
\]
---
### **Summary Table**
| Year | Total Cost | Total Fair Value | Unrealized Gain/Loss |
|-----------|------------|------------------|----------------------|
| 2024 | $492,000 | $535,000 | $43,000 Gain |
| 2025 | $570,000 | $689,000 | $119,000 Gain |
