The Company has not transferred any assets from one level to another level during either the three or six months ended June 30, 2016 or the three or six months ended June 30, 2015. The carrying values of its cash and cash equivalents, cash held in trust, receivable from servicer, investment in affiliates, prepaid expenses and other assets, management fee payable and accrued expenses and other liabilities are equal to or approximate fair value. Property held-for-sale is measured at cost at acquisition and subsequently measured at the lower of cost or fair value less cost to sell on a nonrecurring basis. The fair value of property held-for-sale is generally based on estimated market prices from an independently prepared appraisal, an independent BPO, or an internal valuation based upon recent comparable selling prices. The Company’s borrowings under repurchase transactions are short-term in nature, and the Company’s management believes it can renew the current borrowing arrangements on similar terms in the future. Accordingly, the fair value of these borrowings approximates carrying value. The fair value of mortgage loans is estimated using the Manager’s proprietary pricing model which estimates expected cash flows with the discount rate used in the present value calculation representing the estimated effective yield of the loan. The value of transfers of mortgage loans to real estate owned is based upon the present value of future expected cash flows of the loans being transferred. Significant changes to any of the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company’s mortgage loans including discount rates and loan resolution timelines among others, in isolation, could result in a significant change to the fair value measurement. A decline in the discount rate in isolation would increase the fair value. An increase in the loan resolution timeline in isolation would decrease the fair value. The following table sets forth quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used to measure the fair value of the Company’s mortgage loans as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:
|  | Range of Values
Input |  | June 30, 2016 |  | December 31, 2015
Equity discount rate – Re-performing loans |  | 7% - 14% |  | 7% - 14%
Equity discount rate – Non-performing loans |  | 10% - 18% |  | 10% - 18%
Cost of debt |  | 4.25% |  | 4.25%
Loan resolution timelines – Re-performing loans (in years) |  | 4 - 7 |  | 4 - 7
Loan resolution timelines – Non-performing loans (in years) |  | 1.4 - 4 |  | 1.4 - 4
