4.    FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements”, defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires additional disclosures regarding certain fair value measurements.  ASC 820 establishes a three-tier hierarchy for measuring fair value, as follows:

●Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities

​

●Level 2 – inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable

​

●Level 3 – unobservable inputs where there is little or no market activity

​

The Company considers any potential impairment of property, plant, and equipment, including construction in progress, to be a Level 3 fair value measurement.

​

The following tables summarize the values of assets designated as Investments in debt and equity securities:
