Accounting

Sunland Company has the following investments as of December 31, 2020:

Investments in common stock of Laser Company $1,480,000
Investment in debt securities of FourSquare Company $3,460,000

In both investments, the carrying value and the fair value of these two investments are the same at December 31, 2020. Sunlands stock investments does not result in significant influence on the operations of Laser Company. Sunlands debt investment is considered held-to-maturity. At December 31, 2021, the shares in Laser Company are valued at $1,050,000; the debt investment securities of FourSquare are valued at $2,590,000 and are considered impaired.

Assume that the debt investment in FourSquare Company was available-for-sale and the expected credit loss was $970,000. Prepare the journal entry to record this impairment on December 31, 2021. (Credit account titles are automatically indented when amount is entered. Do not indent manually. If no entry is required, select "No Entry" for the account titles and enter 0 for the amounts.)
