Fair Value Measurements and Derivatives

Note 11. Fair Value Measurements and Derivatives

 

In measuring the fair value of our assets and liabilities, we use market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability including assumptions about risk when appropriate. Our valuation techniques include a combination of observable and unobservable inputs.

 

Fair value measurements on a recurring basis — Assets and liabilities that are carried in our balance sheet at fair value are as follows:

 

          Fair Value Measurements Using  
          Quoted              
          Prices in     Significant     Significant  
          Active     Inputs     Inputs  
          Markets     Observable     Unobservable

Notes receivable - noncurrent asset   $ 122     $ -     $ -     $ 122  
Marketable securities - current asset     60       40       20          
Currency forward contracts - current asset     3               3

Foreign currency derivatives — The total notional amounts of outstanding foreign currency forward contracts as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 were $151 and $213 comprised of currency forward contracts involving the exchange of various currencies.

 

The following currency forward contracts were outstanding at June 30, 2012 and are primarily associated with forecasted transactions involving the purchases and sales of inventory through the next twelve months:

 

 

        Notional Amount (U.S. Dollar Equivalent)      
Functional Currency   Traded Currency   Designated as
Cash Flow
Hedges
    Undesignated     Total     Maturity
U.S. dollar   Mexican peso   $ 91     $ -     $ 91      Jun-13
Euro   U.S. dollar, Canadian dollar, Hungarian forint, Japanese yen     19               19     Jun-13
British pound   U.S. dollar, Euro     13               13      Jun-13
Swedish krona   Euro     7       4       11      Jun-13
Australian dollar   U.S. dollar     6       1       7      Mar-13
Indian rupee   U.S. dollar, British pound, Euro             10       10      Dec-12
Total forward contracts     $ 136     $ 15     $ 151    

 

 

Cash flow hedges — With respect to contracts designated as cash flow hedges, changes in fair value during the period in which the contracts remain outstanding are reported in other comprehensive income (OCI) to the extent such contracts remain effective. Changes in fair value of those contracts that are not designated as cash flow hedges are reported in income in the period in which the changes occur. Forward contracts associated with product-related transactions are marked to market in cost of sales while other contracts are marked to market through other income, net. Amounts recorded in OCI are ultimately reclassified to earnings in the same periods in which the underlying transactions affect earnings.

 

Amounts to be reclassified to earnings — Deferred losses of $3 at June 30, 2012, which are reported in AOCI, are expected to be reclassified to earnings during the next twelve months. Amounts expected to be reclassified to earnings assume no change in the current hedge relationships or to June 30, 2012 market rates. Deferred losses at December 31, 2011 and March 31, 2012 were $13 and $3, of which $2 and $4 were reclassified from AOCI to earnings in the first and second quarters of 2012. The remainder of the change in the deferred losses in AOCI is primarily attributable to the fluctuation of the U.S. dollar against the Mexican peso during each of the first two quarters of 2012.

 

Changes in Level 3 recurring fair value measurements

 

    Three Months Ended     Six Months Ended  
    June 30,     June 30,  
Notes receivable   2012     2011     2012     2011  
Beginning of period   $ 119     $ 106     $ 116     $ 103  
Accretion of value (interest income)     3       3       7       6  
Other                     (1 )        
End of period   $ 122     $ 109     $ 122     $ 109  

 

Substantially all of the notes receivable balance consists of a callable note, due 2019, obtained in connection with a divestiture in 2004. The fair value of the note is derived using a discounted cash flow technique and capped at the callable value. The discount rate used in the calculation is the current yield of the publically traded debt of the operating subsidiary of the obligor, adjusted by a 250 basis point risk premium. The significant unobservable input used to fair value the note is the risk premium. A significant increase in the risk premium may result in a lower fair value measurement. A significant decrease in the risk premium would not result in a significantly higher fair value measurement due to the callable value cap.

 

Fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis — In addition to items that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, we also have long-lived assets that may be measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. These assets include intangible assets and property, plant and equipment which may be written down to fair value as a result of impairment.
