(1) Statement on Financial Accounting Standard No. 157 "Fair Value Measurements" - Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments. |
These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below. |
• Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
• Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.) |
• Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments) |
|
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of December 30, 2022 in valuing the Fund's assets carried at fair value: |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | | | |
| | | | | Investments in | | Other Financial |
Valuation Inputs | | | | Securities | | Instruments (9) |
Level 1 - Quoted Prices | | | $ | 14,928,026 | $ | |
Level 2 - Other Significant Observable Inputs | | | - | | - |
Level 3 - Significant Unobservable Inputs | | | - | | - |
Total | | | | $ | 14,928,026 | $ | 0 |
| | | | | | | |
The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, short-term |
debt instruments and repurchase agreements with a maturity of less than 60 days are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment |
Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active |
market, such securities are reflected as Level 2. |
| | | | | | | |
(2) Represents non-income producing securities. |
(4) Variable rate security; the coupon rate shown represents the yield at December 30, 2022 |
(6) The notional amount is calculated by multiplying outstanding contracts by the exercise price at December 30, 2022. |
