14.         FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT

Measured or disclosed at fair value on a recurring basis

The Group measured its financial assets and liabilities, including cash equivalents, available-for-sale security, restricted cash, accounts receivable, loan receivables, amounts due from related parties, other receivables and other payables on a recurring basis as of December 31, 2017 and 2018. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued based on the quoted market price in an active market.

The carrying amounts of accounts receivables, loan receivables-current and amounts due from related parties approximate their fair values. The carrying amount of loan receivables -noncurrent approximates fair value as its interest rates are at the same level of current market yield for comparable loans.

The Company measured available-for-sale security based on a valuation which utilizes income approach to determine the equity value and the options-pricing method to determine the allocated values between preferred shares and common shares. The available-for-sale security is classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy because the Company used unobservable inputs to value the investment. The significant unobservable inputs include the forecast financial performance of the investee business and discount rate to determine the fair value of the business.

Measured or disclosed at fair value on a non-recurring basis

The Group's goodwill and intangible assets are primarily acquired through business acquisitions. Purchase price allocation are measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as of the acquisition dates. The Group measures its goodwill and intangible assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value. Acquired intangible assets are measured using the income approach - discounted cash flow method when events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may no longer be recoverable. The Group did not recognize any impairment loss related to intangible assets acquired for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018.

The Group measures long-term equity method investment at fair value on a non-recurring basis whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may no longer be recoverable. The fair value is determined using models with significant unobservable inputs (Level 3 inputs), primarily the management projection of discounted future cash flow and the discount rate. The Group did not recognize any impairment loss related to the long-term equity method investment for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2017 and 2018.
