Trading securities are normally reported as current and may be non
current if appropriate. (Becker F3(b))
The $25,000 in income is the net loss on the trading securities (gains or
losses on trading securities are always reporting in the income statement
in the current period)
The $35,000 loss (unrealized) in AFS are reported in Other comprehensive
income. Other comprehensive income are reported as a part of equity
(remember PUFE).
If you use the IDEA or the PUFE then it should help you to clarify.
If the decline is other than temporary the AFS gains/losses are reported in
the income statement.
If a security is reported in other comprehensive income, then it is more
likely to be classified as AFS (unrealized gains/losses)
Hope this helps
