Answer:

$23,058

Step-by-step explanation:

For calculation of Other comprehensive income first we will find out the total amortized premiums which is shown below:-

Total amortized premiums = 3,186 + 3,294

= $6,480

Other comprehensive income = Fair value on December 31, 2022 - (Selling price of bonds - Total amortized premiums)

= $954,000 - ($937,422 - $6,480)

= $954,000 - $930,942

= $23,058

We simply applied the above formula.
