NOTE 12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Measurements on a Recurring Basis

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we do not have any significant financial assets or financial liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis in our consolidated financial statements.

Financial Assets and Liabilities not Measured at Fair Value

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 the carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and note payable, accounts payable and accrued expenses were representative of their fair values due to the short-term nature of these instruments or, the recent acquisition of these items.

The Partnership has investments in U.S. Treasury bills, some of which mature over a period greater than 90 days and are classified as short-term investments. The U.S. Treasury bills are carried at amortized cost and classified as held to maturity as the Partnership has the intent and the ability to hold them until they mature. The carrying value of the U.S. Treasury bills are adjusted for accretion of discounts over the remaining life of the investment. Income related to the U.S. Treasury bills is recognized in interest income in the Partnership’s consolidated statement of income. The U.S. Treasury bills classified within Level I of the fair value hierarchy.

At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023 we estimated the fair value of our mortgage payable, derivative financial instrument, and other notes based upon quoted market prices for the same (Level 1) or similar (Level 2) issues when current quoted market prices are available. We estimated the fair value of our secured mortgage debt that does not have current quoted market prices available by discounting the future cash flows using rates currently available to us for debt with similar terms and maturities (Level 3). The differences in the fair value of our debt from the carrying value are the result of differences in interest rates and/or borrowing spreads that were available to us at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, as compared with those in effect when the debt was issued or acquired. The secured mortgage debt contain pre-payment penalties or yield maintenance provisions that could make the cost of refinancing the debt at lower rates exceed the benefit that would be derived from doing so. At June 30, 2024 and at December 31, 2023, the Partnership’s line of credit had an outstanding balance of zero.

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Partnership in estimating the fair value of its financial instruments:

For cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, other assets, investment in partnerships, accounts payable, advance rents and security deposits: fair value approximates the carrying value of such assets and liabilities.
For mortgage notes payable and treasury bills: fair value is generally based on estimated future cash flows, which are discounted using the quoted market rate from an independent source for similar obligations. Refer to the table below for the carrying amount and estimated fair value of such instruments.

The following table reflects the carrying amounts and estimated fair value of our debt.
