Sun Corp. had investments in marketable debt securities costing $650,000 that were classified as available-for-sale. On June 30, Year 2, Sun decided to hold the investments to maturity and accordingly reclassified them to the held-to-maturity category on that date. The investments' fair value was $575,000 at December 31, Year 1, $530,000 at June 30, Year 2, and $490,000 at December 31, Year 2. Sun does not elect the fair value option to account for these investments. What amount of loss from investments should Sun report in its Year 2 income statement?
