Accounting Policies [Abstract] |

Fair value measurement, GAAP hierarchy |
GAAP requires the categorization of the fair value of financial instruments into three broad levels that form a hierarchy based on the transparency of inputs to the valuation.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Level |
|
Measurement |
1 |
|
Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date. |
2 |
|
Inputs are other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability. |
3 |
|
Inputs are unobservable for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability. |
Sunlight follows this hierarchy for its financial instruments, with classifications based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The following summarizes Sunlight’s financial instruments hierarchy at September 30, 2022:

|
Level |
|
Financial Instrument |
|
Measurement |
1 |
|
Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash |
|
Estimates of fair value are measured using observable, quoted market prices, or Level 1 inputs |
|
|
Public Warrants |
|
Estimates of fair value are measured using observable, quoted market prices of Sunlight’s warrants. |
3 |
|
Loans and loan participations, held-for-investment |
|
Estimated fair value is generally determined by discounting the expected future cash flows using inputs such as discount rates. |
|
|
Contract derivative |
|
Estimated fair value based upon discounted expected future cash flows arising from the contract. |
|
|
Private Placement Warrants |
|
Estimated fair value based upon quarterly valuation estimates of warrant instruments, based upon quoted prices of Sunlight’s Class A shares and warrants thereon as well as fair value inputs provided by an independent valuation firm. |
|
Cash and cash equivalents |
Sunlight reported cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash in the following line items of its Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, which totals the aggregate amount presented in Sunlight’s Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows:
