ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures regarding certain fair value measurements.  ASC 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy for measuring fair value, as follows:

Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable

Level 3 – unobservable inputs where there is little or no market activity

The following tables summarize the values of assets designated as Investments in debt and equity securities:
