GAAP requires disclosure of fair valuation measurements as of each measurement date. In compliance
|
|||||
with GAAP, the Fund follows a fair value hierarchy that distinguishes between market data obtained from
|
|||||
independent sources (observable inputs) and the Fund's own market assumptions (unobservable inputs).
|
|||||
These inputs are used in determining the value of the Fund's investments and summarized in the following
|
|||||
fair value hierarchy:
|
|||||
|
|||||
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
|
|||||
|
|||||
Level 2 - quoted prices in inactive markets or other significant observable inputs (e.g. quoted prices for
|
|||||
similar securities; interest rates; prepayment speed; credit risk; yield curves)
|
|||||
|
|||||
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (e.g. discounted cash flow analysis; non-market based methods used
|
|||||
to determine fair value)
|
|||||
Observable inputs are those based upon market data obtained from independent sources, and unobservable
|
|||||
inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions based on the best information available. A financial
|
|||||
instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and
|
|||||
in aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities
|
|||||
are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
|
|||||
The Fund has adopted the Accounting Standard Update, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
|
|||||
(Topic 820): Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements which provides guidance on
|
|||||
how investment assets and liabilities are to be valued and disclosed. Specifically, the amendment
|
|||||
requires reporting entities to disclose i) the input and valuation techniques used to measure fair value
|
|||||
for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements, for Level 2 or Level 3 positions, ii)
|
|||||
transfers between all levels (including Level 1 and Level 2) are required to be disclosed on a gross
|
|||||
basis (i.e. transfers out must be disclosed separately from transfers in) as well as the reason(s) for the
|
|||||
transfer, and iii) purchases, sales, issuances and settlements must be shown on a gross basis in the
|
|||||
Level 3 rollforward rather than as one net number. The effective date of the amendment is for interim
|
|||||
and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, however, the requirement to provide the
|
|||||
Level 3 activity for purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis will be effective for
|
|||||
interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Fund has adopted the
|
|||||
disclosures required by this amendment, which did not have a material impact on the financial
|
|||||
statements.
|
|||||
|
|||||
The Funds value Level 1 securities using readily available market quotations in active markets. The
|
|||||
Funds value Level 2 fixed income securities using independent pricing providers who employ matrix
|
|||||
pricing models utilizing market prices, broker quotes and prices of securities with comparable
|
|||||
maturities and qualities. The Funds value Level 2 equity securities using various observable
|
|||||
market inputs in accordance with procedures approved by the Board of Trustees as described above.
|
|||||
The Funds did not have any Level 3 securities at January 31, 2011.

|||||
