12. Financial Instruments (continued)
Fair value hierarchy
In accordance with FRS 102, the Company must disclose the fair value hierarchy
of financial instruments.
The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three classifications:
Classification A - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or
liabilities.
Quoted in an active market in this context means quoted prices are readily and
regularly available and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring
market transactions on and arm's length basis.
Classification B - The price of a recent transaction for an identical asset,
where quoted prices are unavailable.
The price of a recent transaction for an identical asset provides evidence of
fair value as long as there has not been a significant change in economic
circumstances or a significant lapse of time since the transaction took place.
If it can be demonstrated that the last transaction price is not a good
estimate of fair value (e.g. because it reflects the amount that an entity
would receive or pay in a forced transaction, involuntary liquidation or
distress sale), that price is adjusted.
Classification C - Inputs for the asset or liability that are based on
observable market data and unobservable market data, to estimate what the
transaction price would have been on the measurement data in an arm's length
exchange motivated by normal business considerations.
The Company only holds classification A investments (2015: classification A
investments only).
