The Fund adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS
157). In accordance with FAS 157, fair value is defined as the price
that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a
liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. FAS 157 also establishes a framework for measuring
fair value, and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements
based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or
liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly
to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the
asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market
participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on
market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable
inputs reflect the Fund's own assumptions about the assumptions that
market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability
developed based on the best information available in the circumstances.
Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the
inputs which are significant to the overall valuation. The three-tier
hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.
Copyright © 2013 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved.
Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document
Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices
for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit
risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own
assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
The following table summarizes the valuation of the Fund's investments
by the above fair value hierarchy levels as of September 30, 2014:
