#### Free Microlearning:

## Fair Value: Restrictions on the Sale of Assets

How should fair value be applied to assets whose sale is restricted? After reviewing the definition of fair value and the requirement within ASC 820 to consider market participant assumptions, this microlearning course presents a case study focused on determining whether a restriction is "entity-specific" or "security-specific." After the case study, we provide helpful guidance in determining the type of restriction and the impact on estimating fair value. This online course concludes with providing examples of common restrictions and their effect on fair value of the related securities.
