FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS: Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. A three level fair value hierarchy is used to prioritize the inputs used in valuations, as defined below:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level 1: |
Observable inputs that reflect unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. |
|
Level 2: |
Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. |
|
Level 3: |
Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
|
