Fair Value Of Financial Instruments [Abstract]

NOTE 3 – FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

At May 31, 2022, the carrying value of our financial instruments approximated their fair values. The fair values of our contingent consideration liabilities from previous business acquisitions are considered “Level 3” measurements because we use various estimates in the valuation models to project the timing and amount of future contingent payments. The fair value of the contingent consideration liability from the acquisition of Jhana Education (Jhana) changed as follows during the quarter and three quarters ended May 31, 2022 (in thousands):



Balance at August 31, 2021	$	2,095
Change in fair value		28
Payments		(368)
Balance at November 30, 2021		1,755
Change in fair value		20
Payments		(303)
Balance at February 28, 2022		1,472
Change in fair value		12
Payments		(428)
Balance at May 31, 2022	$	1,056

At each quarterly reporting date, we estimate the fair value of our contingent liability from the acquisition of Jhana through the use of a Monte Carlo simulation. Based on the timing of expected payments, all of the Jhana contingent consideration liability shown above was recorded in accrued liabilities at May 31, 2022. Adjustments to the fair value of our contingent consideration liabilities are included in selling, general, and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated income statements and statements of comprehensive income.
