Answer:

$200,2600

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Amortized cost of the bond = $1,997,000

Market value of the bond = $2,002,600

Original cost of the bond = $1,993,000

Par value = $2,000,000

So by considering the above information, the amount that is to be reported in the investment is equal to the market value of the bond i.e $200,2600

Therefore, all other values are ignored
