Our valuation techniques and Level 3 inputs used to estimate the fair value of the contingent consideration payable in connection with our acquisition of Rahu Catalytics Limited ("Rahu") are described below. There were no transfers into or out of Levels 1, 2 or 3 in 2013 or 2014.

The following table summarizes changes in Level 3 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

We acquired Rahu on December 22, 2011. The purchase price included contingent consideration of up to an additional €20.0 million ($27.6 million at March 31, 2014) based on achieving certain volume targets over a fifteen year period ending on December 31, 2026. We estimated the fair value of the contingent consideration using probability-weighted expected future cash flows and applied a discount rate that appropriately captures a market participant's view of the risk associated with the contingent consideration. Contingent consideration is included in Other non-current liabilities in the Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The valuation of the contingent consideration is classified utilizing Level 3 inputs consistent with assumptions which would be made by other market participants. There are many factors that could impact the likelihood that we will pay the contingent consideration and therefore its value, including overall economic conditions and our ability to drive sales volumes as planned. A change in a market participant view of risks could also impact the value of the contingent consideration.

We also hold financial instruments consisting of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amounts of cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Long-term debt outstanding at any time during 2013 had a fair value based on quoted market prices in previous periods, which are Level 1 inputs. There was no long-term debt outstanding as of March 31, 2014. Derivative instruments are recorded at fair value as indicated above.
