Fair Value

For prepaid and other current assets, related-party receivable, accounts payable, and accrued expenses, the carrying amounts approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The Company did not have any assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) consist of the following at March 31, 2014. Assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis using quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments (Level 1), significant other observable inputs (Level 2), and significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) consist of the following at December 31, 2013:

		December 31,			Fair value measurements at reporting date using
		2013			Level 1 inputs			Level 2 inputs			Level 3 inputs

The following methods and assumptions were used to determine the fair value of each class of assets recorded at fair value in the balance sheets:

Cash equivalents: Cash equivalents primarily consist of highly rated money market funds with original maturities to the Company of three months or less, and are purchased daily at par value with specified yield rates. Due to the high ratings and short-term nature of the funds, the Company considers all cash equivalents as Level 1.

The entire disclosure for the fair value of financial instruments (as defined), including financial assets and financial liabilities (collectively, as defined), and the measurements of those instruments as well as disclosures related to the fair value of non-financial assets and liabilities. Such disclosures about the financial instruments, assets, and liabilities would include: (1) the fair value of the required items together with their carrying amounts (as appropriate); (2) for items for which it is not practicable to estimate fair value, disclosure would include: (a) information pertinent to estimating fair value (including, carrying amount, effective interest rate, and maturity, and (b) the reasons why it is not practicable to estimate fair value; (3) significant concentrations of credit risk including: (a) information about the activity, region, or economic characteristics identifying a concentration, (b) the maximum amount of loss the entity is exposed to based on the gross fair value of the related item, (c) policy for requiring collateral or other security and information as to accessing such collateral or security, and (d) the nature and brief description of such collateral or security; (4) quantitative information about market risks and how such risks are managed; (5) for items measured on both a recurring and nonrecurring basis information regarding the inputs used to develop the fair value measurement; and (6) for items presented in the financial statement for which fair value measurement is elected: (a) information necessary to understand the reasons for the election, (b) discussion of the effect of fair value changes on earnings, (c) a description of [similar groups] items for which the election is made and the relation thereof to the balance sheet, the aggregate carrying value of items included in the balance sheet that are not eligible for the election; (7) all other required (as defined) and desired information.
