Cash and cash equivalents.  This category consists of direct cash holdings and institutional short-term investment vehicles. Direct cash holdings are valued based on cost, which approximates fair value and are classified as Level 1. Institutional short-term investment vehicles are valued daily and are classified as Level 2.
Corporate, U.S. government, state, and municipal debt securities. These securities are valued using market inputs including benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers and reference data including market research publications. Inputs may be prioritized differently at certain times based on market conditions.
Corporate common stock. This category includes common and preferred stocks and index mutual funds that track U.S. and foreign indices. Fair values for the common and preferred stocks are based on quoted prices in active markets and were therefore classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The mutual funds were valued at the unit prices established by the funds' sponsors based on the fair value of the assets underlying the funds. Since the units of the funds are not actively traded, the fair value measurements have been classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
Registered investment company funds. This category includes mutual funds that are actively traded on public exchanges.  The funds are invested in equity and debt securities that are actively traded on public exchanges.
Common trust funds. Common trust funds consist of shares in commingled funds that are not publicly traded.  The funds are invested in equity and debt securities that are actively traded on public exchanges.
General insurance account. The general insurance account is primarily comprised of insurance contracts that guarantee a minimum return.
