IAS 32 - excludes from the definition of that fair value "the value that an entity would pay for it or would receive it in a forced, in an involuntary liquidation or a sale really cheap.[5] According to data definition, IAS excludes the possibility to consider that the fair value price of the financial exchange between the entities belonging to the same group being considered as independent parties.[7] An important consideration that should be taken into account is the need not to confuse the concept of fair value to market price, very run error in practice.[1] This could actually be determined using techniques that simulate the market value.
