The Company’s investment portfolio had a net realized loss of $10,986 and $1,801 for the three months ended March 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively.

 

The cost and fair value of investments in available-for-sale securities, by contractual maturity, as of March 31, 2013, were as follows:

 

    Cost     Fair Value  
Due within one year   $ 714,278     $ 697,034  
Due after one year through three years     778,065       780,271  
Due after three years     968,228       978,702  
No maturity     7,905       25,546  
    $ 2,468,476     $ 2,481,553  

 

Expected maturities will differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of certain debt securities have the right to call or prepay their obligations without any penalties. Accordingly, the Company has classified the entire fair value of its investments in available-for-sale securities as current assets in the accompanying balance sheets.
