The fair value of <strong>Edmonton</strong> <strong><strong>Airport</strong>s</strong>’ cash in interest bearing accounts, short-term investments, accounts<br />

receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the immediate or<br />

short-term maturity of these financial instruments.<br />

The fair value of the interest bearing cash deposits approximates its carrying value.<br />

The fair value of the tenants’ security deposits approximates its carrying value as it represents cash and accrued<br />

interest at rates comparable to currently available rates.<br />

The fair value of the lessee receivables is not determinable.<br />

The fair value of the obligation under capital leases approximates its carrying value.<br />

The fair value at December 31, 2006 of the Series A Bonds at a market rate of 5.10% (2005 – 5.01%) is<br />

$300,507 (2005 – $307,220). Fair value has been calculated using the future cash flows (principal and interest)<br />

of the outstanding debt instruments, discounted at current market rates available to <strong>Edmonton</strong> <strong><strong>Airport</strong>s</strong> for the<br />

same or similar instruments. The fair value at December 31, 2006 of the Series C Bonds approximates its<br />

carrying value as it was negotiated near its valuation date.<br />
