1. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS

 

 

 

 

At March 31, 2014, the net unrealized appreciation on investments, based on cost for federal income

 

 

 

 

tax purposes of $42,155,989, amounted to $8,368,052, which consisted of aggregate gross unrealized appreciation of

 

 

 

 

 $8,475,454 and aggregate gross unrealized depreciation of $107,402.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2. SECURITY VALUATION

 

 

 

 

 

The Fund’s assets are valued at the market value using market quotations. Common stocks in the Fund’s portfolio are valued at the last quoted sale price on the day the valuation is made. Those common stocks that are not traded on the valuation date are valued at the last bid price. When the market quotation of a stock is either not readily available or not reliable, the Adviser will determine the fair value of the stock in accordance with the guideline approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. As a general principle, the fair value of a stock is the price that the Fund may reasonably expect to receive for the stock upon its current sale.

 

 

In September 2006, Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards  No. 157,

 

 

"Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"). In  accordance with  SFAS 157,  fair value is defined as the price  that the Fund

 

 

would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability  in  an orderly transaction between market participants at the

 

 

measurement date.  SFAS 157 also establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and a three-level hierarchy for fair

 

 

value measurements based upon the transparency  of  inputs  to  the valuation of an asset or liability.  Inputs may be observable  

 

 

 

or unobservable  and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

 

 

 

 

Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data  

 

 

 

obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions

 

 

that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the

 

 

 

 

circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall

 

 

 

valuation. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in

 

 

 

 

those securities.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund's investments by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of

 

 

 

 

March 31, 2014:

ITEM 2. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.


(a)

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES. The Registrant maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Registrant's filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940 is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Such information is accumulated and communicated to the Registrant's management, including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The Registrant's management, including the principal executive officer and the principal financial officer, recognizes that any set of controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.

Within 90 days prior to the filing date of this Quarterly Schedule of Portfolio Holdings on Form N-Q, the Registrant had carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Registrant's management, including the Registrant's principal executive officer and the Registrant's principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures. Based on such evaluation, the Registrant's principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that the Registrant's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

(b)

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROLS. There have been no significant changes in the Registrant's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect the internal controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation in connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Schedule of Portfolio Holdings on Form N-Q.
