 f. Fair value of financial instruments
1) Fair value measurements recognized in the consolidated balance sheets
Fair value measurements are grouped into Levels 1 to 3 based on the degree to which the fair value is observable:
 Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
 Level 2 fair value measurements are those derived from inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices); and
 Level 3 fair value measurements are those derived from valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).
2) Fair value of financial instruments that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis
