Hang Technologies Inc. held a portfolio of shares and bonds that it accounted for using the fair value through other comprehensive income model at December 31, 2014. This was the first year that Hang had purchased investments. In part due to Hang's inexperience, by December 31, 2014, the market value of the portfolio had dropped below its original cost by $28,000. Hang recorded the necessary adjustments at December 31, 2014, and was determined to hold the securities until the unrealized loss of 2014 could be recovered. By December 31, 2015, Hang's goals of recovery had been realized and the original portfolio of shares and bonds had a fair market value $5,500 higher than the original purchase costs. Hang's income tax rate is 30% for all years. Assume that any gains that will ultimately be realized on the sale of the shares and bonds are taxable as ordinary income when they are realized. Hang applies IFRS.
