Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that value:

 

Cash and Restricted Cash:

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments.

 

Receivables:

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of those receivables.

 

Accounts Payable:

 

The carrying amount approximates fair value because of the short-term maturity of those debts.

 

Debt:

 

It was not practicable to estimate the fair value of the Company’s debt with its primary lender, its notes payable and its convertible debentures because these debts are in default causing no basis for estimating value by reference to quoted market prices or current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities.

 

The estimated fair values of the Company’s financial instruments are as follows:

 

    2013     2012  
    Carrying     Fair     Carrying     Fair  
    Amount     Value     Amount     Value  
Cash and restricted cash   $ 6,000     $ 6,000     $ 6,000     $ 6,000  
Receivables     440,000       440,000       543,000       543,000  
Accounts payable     -       -       -       -  
Debt     12,257,000       -       12,257,000       -
