NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The fair values of our Equity Derivatives are based on the quoted market
value of RCI’s Class B Non-Voting shares.
Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time based on
relevant market information and information about the financial
instruments. The estimates are subjective in nature and involve
uncertainties and matters of judgment.
Our disclosure of the three-level hierarchy reflects the significance of
the inputs used in measuring fair value:
 We determine fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities in
Level 1 by referring to quoted prices in active markets for identical
assets and liabilities.
 Financial assets and financial liabilities in Level 2 include valuations
using inputs based on observable market data, either directly or
indirectly, other than the quoted prices.
 Level 3 valuations are based on inputs that are not based on
observable market data.
There were no material financial instruments categorized in Level 3 as at
December 31, 2013 and 2012.
The table below shows the financial instruments carried at fair value by valuation method as at December 31, 2013 and 2012.
