gill15 | I thought I knew all this stuff but nope. This exam is ALL about doing questions.. |
harpalani | How about unrealised gains/losses on held-to-maturity investments? |
czar | held to maturity securities are held at cost till sold..so no unrealised g/l is recognised in the interim |
dream007 | is this exam a game?? |
jjhigdon | Yes, a game that you win or lose based on your understanding of the material. |
