How to properly record investments in accounting?

To properly record investments in accounting, you should classify them as either short-term or long-term investments based on how long you plan to hold them. Short-term investments are recorded at their current market value on the balance sheet, while long-term investments are recorded at their historical cost. Any changes in the value of investments should be reflected in the financial statements.
