Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 6 Months Ended

Oct. 27, 2013
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | 10. Fair Value of Financial Instruments ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between assumptions based on market data (observable inputs) and the company’s assumptions (unobservable inputs). Determining where an asset or liability falls within that hierarchy depends on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement as a whole. An adjustment to the pricing method used within either level 1 or level 2 inputs could generate a fair value measurement that effectively falls in a lower level in the hierarchy. The hierarchy consists of three broad levels as follows: Level 1 – Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 – Inputs other than level 1 inputs that are either directly or indirectly observable, and Level 3 – Unobservable inputs developed using the company’s estimates and assumptions, which reflect those that market participants would use. Recurring Basis The following table presents information about assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

The determination of where an asset or liability falls in the hierarchy requires significant judgment. We evaluate our hierarchy disclosures each quarter based on various factors and it is possible that an asset or liability may be classified differently from quarter to quarter. However, we expect that changes in classifications between different levels will be rare. Our short-term investments include short-term bond funds, are classified as available-for-sale, and their unrealized gains or losses are included in other comprehensive income (loss). Our short-term bond funds were recorded at their fair value of $6.2 million, $5.2 million, and $5.3 million at October 27, 2013, October 28, 2012 and April 28, 2013, respectively. Our short-term bond funds had an accumulated unrealized loss totaling $59,000 at October 27, 2013, an accumulated unrealized gain totaling $60,000 at October 28, 2012, and an accumulated unrealized gain totaling $54,000 at April 28, 2013. At October 27, 2013, October 28, 2012 and April 28, 2013 the fair value of our short-term bond funds approximated its cost basis. The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and line of credit approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. Nonrecurring Basis As of October 27, 2013, we had no financial assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis other than the assets acquired from Bodet & Horst (see note 3) that were acquired at fair value.

The equipment was classified as level 2 as the fair value was determined using quoted market prices from a third party. The non-compete was recorded at its fair value using a discounted cash flow valuation model that used significant unobservable inputs and was classified as level 3. The customer relationships were recorded at fair value using a multi-period excess earnings valuation model that used significant unobservable inputs and was classified as level 3.
