Well, if it's not C, I'm going to have a fair bit of trouble with this exam. Glad I didn't choose the 'residual interest' option - that would have been a real liability!

C is the way to go. I mean, who wouldn't want their financial assets and liabilities measured by the amount for which they could be exchanged between knowledgeable, willing parties? It's the fair-est of them all!

Hmm, I was between B and C, but I'm going with C. It just seems to capture the essence of fair value better than the other options.

Option C definitely sounds like the right choice to me. It's the only one that mentions willing parties and arm's length transactions.

I'm not sure about that. I think fair value is more about confirming users' expectations.
