Schedule of Allocation of Plan Assets The following table presents our plan assets using the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2019 and 2018. The fair value hierarchy has three levels based on the reliability of the inputs used to determine fair value. Level 1 refers to fair values determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. Level 2 refers to fair values estimated using significant other observable inputs, and Level 3 includes fair values estimated using significant unobservable inputs.
