Accounting standards utilize a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity ’s own assumptions.
