ANSWER:
S&L Financials buys and sells securities expecting to earn profits on short term differences in price. On Dec 27, 2021 S&L purchased Coca Cola bonds at par for $875,000 and sold the bonds on Jan 3 2022 for $880,000. At Dec 31 the bonds had a fair value $873,000.

Part c January 3rd 2022
Cash $880,000
Investment in Bonds $875,000
Fair value adjustment $5,000
880,000 - 875,000 = 5,000
