Fair Value Measurements FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. The fair value hierarchy established prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:
 
Level 1 - Observable inputs - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities - includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets, and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and

Level 3 - Unobservable inputs - includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions.

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy:

The changes in the Level 2 fair value measurements from December 26, 2021 to March 27, 2022 relate to the cancellation of the interest rate swap arrangement. Key inputs in determining the fair value of the interest rate swap as of December 26, 2021 were quoted prices from BMO (See Note 8).
The changes in the Level 3 fair value measurements from December 26, 2021 to March 27, 2022 relates primarily to payments of $1.1 million on the Momentum acquisition, partially offset by $0.1 million in accretion. Key inputs in determining the fair value of the contingent consideration as of March 27, 2022 and December 26, 2021 included discount rates of approximately 9% as well as management's estimates of future sales volumes and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”).
