Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Measurements
The fair value hierarchy consists of the following three levels:

Level 1 — Valuations based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the company has the ability to access;
Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-based valuations in which all significant inputs are observable in the market; and
Level 3 — Valuations using significant inputs that are unobservable in the market and include the use of judgment by the company's management about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
