Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
We state cash equivalents at cost, which approximates fair market value. The carrying values for receivables from clients, unbilled receivables, accounts payable, deferred revenue and other accrued liabilities reasonably approximate fair market value due to the nature of the financial instrument and the short-term maturity of these items.
We record bank debt, if any, as of the period end date based on the effective borrowing rate and repayment terms when originated. As of June 30, 2017, we had $13.6 million in bank debt outstanding, and we had no bank debt outstanding as of June 30, 2016. We believe the carrying value of the bank debt approximates its fair value. We considered the factors used in determining the fair value of this debt to be Level 3 inputs (significant unobservable inputs).
We had $4.0 million of business acquisition obligations as of June 30, 2017, and no such obligations as of June 30, 2016. Our business acquisition obligations represent the estimated fair value of the deferred consideration and projected earn-out payments due as of the end of the recording period. We determine the estimated fair value of business acquisition obligations based on our projections of future revenue and profits or other factors used in the calculation of the ultimate payment(s) to be made. The discount rate that we use to value the liability is based on specific business risk, cost of capital, and other factors. We consider these factors to be Level 3 inputs (significant unobservable inputs).
We state certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as required by GAAP. Generally, these assets are recorded at fair value on a nonrecurring basis as a result of impairment charges.
