Fair values of long-term debt have been estimated primarily using available market information. For Con Edison, $11,677 million and $636 million of the fair value of long-term debt at June 30, 2013 are classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively. For CECONY, $10,355 million and $636 million of the fair value of long-term debt at June 30, 2013 are classified as Level 2 and Level 3, respectively (see Note L). The $636 million of long-term debt classified as Level 3 is CECONY’s tax-exempt, auction-rate securities for which the market is highly illiquid and there is a lack of observable inputs.
