    The explanation is given below:-

    $6,160,000

    Explanation:

    Since owning shares is not a huge enough to exert significant control. So, strategy for reporting would be a fair value process.

    According to the scenario the computation of amount reported in the 2022 balance sheet is shown below:-

    Fair value through net income = Shares of FedEx common stock * Market value of the stock of 31 Dec 2022

    = 55000 * $112

    = $6,160,000

    So, for computing the amount reported in the 2022 balance sheet we simply multiply the Shares of FedEx common stock with Market value of the stock of 31 Dec 2022.
