1. At the beginning of current year, Alexis Company purchased marketable equity securities to be held as
"trading" for P5,000,000. The entity also paid transaction cost amounting to P200,000.
The securities had a market value of P5,500,000 at year-end and the transaction cost that would be
incurred on sale is estimated at P100,000. No securities were sold during the current year.
What amount of unrealized gain or loss on these securities should be reported in the income statement for
the current year?

asset at fair value through profit or loss.
A financial asset held for trading is a financial asset measured at fair value through profit or loss.
The transaction cost that would be incurred on sale is ignored because the financial asset held for
trading is measured at fair value and not at fair value less cost of disposal
