1. Explore the FASB Codification sections related to investments (ยง320, 323, and 325). Identify a level of investment in equity
securities (under 20%, 20%-50%, over 50% of outstanding stock) and explain how investments of that size should be treated. Justify why
this methodology is appropriate.
2. Find a publicly traded company that has investments on its balance sheet. Provide a link to the balance sheet in your post, and
explain the details of the investments based on the amounts and disclosures found in the financial statements. Why do you think the
company acquired the investments? Do not choose a company that has already been reported on by one of your classmates.
