Investments, Debt and Equity Securities [Abstract] |
Marketable Securities | MARKETABLE SECURITIES ASC 320 “Investments – Debt and Equity Securities” requires that an enterprise classify all debt securities as either held-to-maturity, trading or available-for-sale. The Company has elected to classify its securities as available-for-sale and therefore is required to adjust securities to fair value at each reporting date. All costs and both realized and unrealized gains and losses on securities are determined on a specific identification basis. The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities at:

We evaluate our securities for other-than-temporary impairment based on the specific facts and circumstances surrounding each security valued below its cost. Factors considered include the length of time the securities have been valued below cost, the financial condition of the issuer, industry reports related to the issuer, the severity of any decline, our intention not to sell the security, and our assessment as to whether it is not more likely than not that we will be required to sell the security before a recovery of its amortized cost basis. We then segregate the loss between the amounts representing a decrease in cash flows expected to be collected, or the credit loss, which is recognized through earnings, and the balance of the loss which is recognized through other comprehensive income. At March 31, 2014, the fair market value of investment securities exceeded the cost basis by $248,000. The cost basis includes any other-than-temporary impairments that have been recorded for the securities. None have been recorded at March 31, 2014. The Company has determined that any unrealized losses in the portfolio are temporary as of March 31, 2014. The Company believes that market factors such as, changes in interest rates, liquidity discounts, and premiums required by market participants rather than an adverse change in cash flows or a fundamental weakness in credit quality of the issuer have led to the temporary declines in value. In the future based on changes in the economy, credit markets, financial condition of issuers, or market interest rates, this could change. As of March 31, 2014, the adjustment to accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in consolidated equity for the temporary change in the value of securities reflects an increase in the market value of available-for-sale securities of $12,000, which includes estimated taxes of $4,000. As of March 31, 2014, the Company’s gross unrealized holding gains equal $324,000 and gross unrealized holding losses equal $76,000. The following tables summarize the maturities, at par, of marketable securities by year ($ in thousands):
