Realized gains and losses from the sale of marketable debt and equity securities are recorded in other income, net in the consolidated income statements.
 Non-Marketable Investments
Cadence’s non-marketable investments generally consist of voting preferred stock, convertible debt or other instruments of privately-held entities and are included in other assets on Cadence’s consolidated balance sheets. If Cadence determines that it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the issuer, which may include considering whether the investments are in-substance common stock, the investment is accounted for using the equity method.
Cadence records in the consolidated income statements as other income, net, realized gains and losses from the sale of non-marketable investments, write downs related to cost method investments due to other-than-temporary declines in value and its proportional share of issuers’ gains or losses related to equity method investments.
The equity method income or loss recorded by Cadence is based on its percentage ownership in the issuer.
Cadence’s non-marketable investments as of January 3, 2015 and December 28, 2013 were as follows:
