Answer:

$2,210 gain.

Explanation:

The computation of the gain or loss amount as on record on this date is shown below:

= Carrying value after the interest payment as on Dec 31 2021 - buyback amount

= $270,071 - $267,861

= $2,210 gain

We simply deduct the buyback amount from the carrying value so that the gain could arrive and that to be recorded on this date
