Answer:

Becker Company

The amount that Becker will report as Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Year 2 balance sheet is:

= $22,800.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Year 2 Beginning balance:

Accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) = $10,800 credit

Year 2 reported net income = $653,000

Unrealized gain during Year 2 = $12,000

The Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income on the Year 2 balance sheet is:

Beginning balance $10,800

Unrealized gain 12,000

AOCI for Year 2 = $22,800

b) Becker's Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income includes unrealized gains and losses arising from some investments, pension plans, and hedging transactions. These are usually reported in the equity section of the balance sheet and then netted off from the retained earnings.
