[1] The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments.
[2] The carrying amount of our credit facilities and bank overdrafts approximates fair value as the interest rate is based on current market rates as well as the short maturity of those instruments.
[3] The fair value of our long-term debt was calculated using discounted cash flows applying current interest rates and current credit spreads based on our own credit risk.
