Fair Value of Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Note 4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company complies with the FASB standard regarding fair value measurement and disclosure requirements for assets and liabilities carried at fair value. Accordingly, assets and liabilities carried at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

Level 1: Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

The Company had no assets or liabilities recorded at fair value as of September 28, 2014 or as of March 30, 2014.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate their fair values as of September 28, 2014 and March 30, 2014 due to their short term nature. As of September 28, 2014 and March 30, 2014 our revolving debt facility had a zero balance.

Fair value of long-term debt is calculated using current market interest rates, which we consider to be a Level 2 input as described in the fair value accounting guidance on fair value measurements, and future principle payments, as of September 28, 2014 and March 30, 2014 is estimated as follows:

	September 28, 2014				March 30, 2014
	Carrying Amount		Fair Value		Carrying Amount		Fair Value
Note payable to a bank	$	2,212,500	$	2,116,800	$	2,325,000	$	2,200,500
Note payable to Baltimore County	$	120,800	$	113,500	$	133,400	$	124,400
