Wang Corporation purchased $100,000 of Hales Inc. 6% bonds at par with the intent and ability to hold the bonds until they matured in 2022, so Wang classifies its investment as held to maturity. Unfortunately, a combination of problems at Hales and in the debt market caused the fair value of the Hales investment to decline to $70,000 during 2018. Wang views this decline as an other-than-temporary (OTT) impairment. Wang calculates that, of the $30,000 drop in fair value, $10,000 of it relates to credit losses and $20,000 relates to non-credit losses. If Wang accounts for the Hales bonds under IAS No. 39, before-tax net income for 2018 will be reduced by:

A) $0.
B) $10,000.
C) $20,000.
D) $30,000.

E) A) and C)
F) B) and D)
