When are assets valued for purposes of reporting the fair market value of assets under section 4010?
A28. The fair market value of assets is determined on the last day of the plan year ending within the filer’s information year, without regard to any contributions received by the plan after the end of the plan year. This should be the same value used for financial statement purposes. V. Financial Information Q29. Are filers required to prepare audited financial statements? A29. No. There is no requirement to prepare either audited or unaudited financial statements. However, if either audited or unaudited financial statements are prepared they must be submitted. Q30.
