4. Fair Value of Financial Instruments
 
The Company has certain financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value. Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize observable data such as quoted prices in active markets. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs utilize data points other than quoted prices in active markets that are observable either directly or indirectly. Fair values determined by Level 3 inputs utilize unobservable data points in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. The carrying amounts reflected in the consolidated balance sheets for cash equivalents, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their carrying value due to their short-term nature. There were no level 1 or 2 assets or liabilities at March 31, 2025 or December 31, 2024. See below for Fair Value of Derivatives related to Convertible Notes Payable at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, which are level 3 liabilities.
 
Level 3 assets and liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were as follows:
