    The Journal entry is as follows:

    Fair value adjustment A/c Dr. $20,000

    To unrealized holding gain or loss-income $20,000

    (To record the adjustment)

    Workings:

    Ending balance = equity portfolio value - cost

    = $160,000 - $132,000

    = $28,000

    Necessary Adjustment = Ending balance - Beginning balance

    = $28,000 - $8,000

    = $20,000
