     As stated in Note 1, the Company records its readily marketable debt and equity securities at fair value. These assets are valued in accordance with a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:


 

Level 1.

 

Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;


 

Level 2.

 

Inputs, other than the quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and         


 

Level 3.

 

Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.


The fair value of these assets as of June 30, 2013 is as follows:
