Fair Market Value

The price, expressed in terms of Cash Equivalents, at which property would change hands between a hypothetical willing and able buyer and a hypothetical willing and able seller, acting at arm’s length in an open and unrestricted market, when neither is under compulsion to buy or sell and when both have reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. (NOTE: in Canada, the term “price” should be replaced with the term “highest price.”)
