Financial Instruments | Financial instruments The Company uses the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate such values: Cash - the carrying amount approximates fair value because the amounts consist of cash held at a bank and cash held in short term investment accounts. Accounts receivable - the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term nature and historical collectability. Notes receivable - the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to the short-term nature of the amount. Accounts payable and accrued liabilities - the carrying amount approximates fair value due to the short-term nature of the obligations. The estimated fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of August 31, 2013 and 2012 follows:
| 2013 |  | 2012
| Carrying | Fair |  | Carrying | Fair
| Amount | Value |  | Amount | Value
Cash | $8,308,445 | $8,308,445 |  | $7,309,388 | $7,309,388
Accounts receivable, net of allowance | 3,344,777 | 3,344,777 |  | 3,092,842 | 3,092,842
Note receivable | 15,000 | 15,000 |  | 20,000 | 20,000
Accounts payable and accrued liabilities | 2,865,340 | 2,865,340 |  | 2,758,249 | 2,758,249
The following table presents information about the assets that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of August 31, 2013, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques the Company utilized to determine such fair value. In general, fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points that are observable such as quoted prices, interest rates and yield curves. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and included situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset:
|  | August 31, 2013 |  | Quoted Prices in Active Markets (Level 1) |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |
Assets: |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Cash |  | $ | 8,308,445 |  | $ | 8,308,445 |  | $ | — |  | $ | — |
The fair values of cash are determined through market, observable and corroborated sources.
