Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, commonly known as FAS 133, is an accounting standard issued in June 1998 by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) that requires companies to measure all assets and liabilities on their balance sheet at “fair value”.
For a fair value hedge, the offset is achieved either by marking-to-market an asset or a liability which offsets the P&L movement of the derivative. For a cash flow hedge, some of the derivative volatility is placed into a separate component of the entity's equity called the cash flow hedge reserve.
An entity may choose to report this fair value on its balance sheet (fair value model) or disclose it in the footnotes (cost model). If the entity chooses to apply the fair value model, "A gain or loss arising from a change in the fair value of investment property shall be recognised in profit or loss for the period in which it arises." (IAS 40 ...
Real estate agents use fair market value to help determine pricing. ... “For example, the value of a pool may be around $15,000 to $30,000 depending on the size and features, a third-car garage ...

Simple example If an investor owns 10 shares of a stock purchased for $4 per share, and that stock now trades at $6, the "mark-to-market" value of the shares is equal to (10 shares * $6), or $60, whereas the book value might (depending on the accounting principles used) equal only $40.
A cash flow hedge [1] is a hedge of the exposure to the variability of cash flow that: is attributable to a particular risk associated with a recognized asset or liability. Such as all or some future interest payments on variable rate debt or a highly probable forecast transaction and; could affect profit or loss (IAS 39, §86b)
Value here may be either fair value, or the present value of future expected cash flows; the modelling is usually under simulation. If the ratio is between 0.8 and 1.25 (4/5 - 5/4) under all scenarios - the "80:125 rule" - then hedge accounting may be applied. Regression analysis.
