4. Fair value measurements

The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cah equivalents and accounts payable. The carrying amount of accounts payable is considered a reasonable estimate of fair value due to the short-term maturity.

The accounting standard for fair value measurements provides a framework for measuring fair value and requires expanded disclosures regarding fair value measurements. Fair value is defined as the proceeds that would be received for an asset or the exit price that would be paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date.

All fair value measurements are classified in the three-tier fair value hierarchy, which categorizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These categories include (in descending order of priority) Level 1, defined as observable inputs, such as quoted prices in active markets for identical securities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as significant unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore, requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
