14 | Determination of fair values |
Certain of the Company’s accounting policies and disclosures require the determination of fair value, for both financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. Fair values have been determined for measurement and/or disclosure purposes based on the following methods. When applicable, further information about the assumptions made in determining fair values is disclosed in the notes specific to that asset or liability.
In establishing fair value, the Company uses a fair value hierarchy based on levels as defined below:
| Level 1: | Defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets. |
| Level 2: | Defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable. |
| Level 3: | Defined as inputs that are based on little or no observable market data, therefore requiring entities to develop their own assumptions. |
The Company has determined that the carrying values of its short-term financial assets and financial liabilities, including cash, trade and other receivables and accounts payable and accrued liabilities, approximate their fair value because of their relatively short period to maturity.
Bonds and money market funds and derivative financial assets and liabilities are stated at fair value, determined by inputs that are primarily based on broker quotes at the reporting date (Level 2).
The fair value of the convertible unsecured senior notes, including the equity portion, as at August 31, 2022, was approximately $24,750 (Level 2) based on market quotes. The carrying value of the long-term loan approximate its fair value due to its recent issuance.
