The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in preparation of its financial statements.  

The policies are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Security Valuation – Equity securities, including common and preferred stocks and real estate investment trusts, which are listed on a national securities exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued by an independent pricing service as of the close of business on the date of valuation. The pricing service generally uses the last reported sale price for exchange traded securities, and the NASDAQ official closing price (NOCP) for NASDAQ traded securities. Securities traded on a national securities exchange or on the NASDAQ National Market System for which there were no sales on the date of securities are actively traded and valuation adjustments are not applied they are categorized as Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy described below.  When an equity security is valued by an independent pricing service using factors other than market quotations or the market is considered inactive, they will be categorized as Level 2.

SCHEDULE OF INVESTMENTS (Unaudited) (Continued)

 

December 31, 2011

 

 

 

 

 

Fixed income securities such as U.S. government and agency obligations, when valued using market quotations in an active market, are categorized as Level 1 securities.  However, fair value may be determined using an independent pricing service that considersmarket observable data such as reported sales of similar securities, broker quotes, yields, bids, offers and other reference data.  These securities would be categorized as Level 2 securities.  The fair value of mortgage-backed securities is estimated by an independent pricing service which uses models that consider interest rate movements, new issue information and other security pertinent data.  Evaluations of tranches (non-volatile, volatile, or credit sensitive) are based on interpretations of accepted Wall Street modeling and pricing conventions.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

Money market funds are valued at their net asset value of $1.00 per share and are all categorized as Level 1.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

If market quotations are not readily available, the security will be valued at fair value (the amount which the owner might reasonably expect to receive for the security upon its current sale) as determined in good faith by the Fund’s advisor ("Fair Value" Pricing), subject to review by the Board of Directors (the Board).  Some of the general factors that the adviser considers in determining a valuation method for an individual issue of securities for which no market quotations are readily available include, but shall not be limited to:  the fundamental analytical data relating to the investment; the nature and duration of restrictions (if any) on disposition of the securities; and evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which these securities are purchased or sold.  These securities would be categorized as Level 3.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Short-term investments that mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, unless the Board of Directors determines

that such valuation does not constitute fair value and would be categorized as Level 2.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Funds utilize various methods to measure the fair value of most of its investments on a recurring basis.  GAAP establishes a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation methods. The three levels of input are:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participate would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The availability of observable inputs can vary from security to security and is affected by a wide variety of factors, including, for example, the type of security, whether the security is new and not yet established in the marketplace, the liquidity of markets, and other characteristics particular to the security. To the extent that valuation is based on models or inputs that are less observable or unobservable in the market, the determination of fair value requires more judgment.  Accordingly, the degree of judgment exercised in determining fair value is greatest for instruments categorized in Level 3.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.  The following tables summarize the inputs used as of December 31, 2011 for the Fund’s assets and liabilities measured at fair value:
