Fair Value Measurements
Fair Value Measurements
At December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, the carrying amounts of cash, certain cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities, receivables, drafts and accounts payable, short-term borrowings and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments.
The fair value of our commercial paper was determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical liabilities, which are considered Level 1 inputs.
Our long-term debt is carried at amortized cost. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these liabilities were $8.7 billion and $9.0 billion at December 31, 2018, and $7.9 billion and $8.1 billion at March 31, 2018. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt was determined using quoted market prices in a less active market and other observable inputs from available market information, which are considered to be Level 2 inputs, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018 included investments in money market funds of $528 million and $799 million, which are reported at fair value. The fair value of money market funds was determined by using quoted prices for identical investments in active markets, which are considered to be Level 1 inputs under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance. The carrying value of all other cash equivalents approximates their fair value due to their relatively short-term nature.
Fair values of our forward foreign currency contracts were determined using observable inputs from available market information. Fair values of our cross-currency swaps were determined using quoted foreign currency exchange rates and other observable inputs from available market information. These inputs are considered Level 2 under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future. Refer to Financial Note 13, “Hedging Activities,” for fair value and other information on our foreign currency derivatives including forward foreign currency contracts and cross-currency swaps.
There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the third quarters and first nine months of 2019 and 2018.
Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
At December 31, 2018, assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis primarily consisted of long-lived assets for our Rexall Health business within Other.
At March 31, 2018, assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis consisted of goodwill, intangibles and other long-lived assets for our former (prior to the 2019 first quarter realignment in our operating segment structure) Distribution Solutions segment.
Goodwill
Fair value assessments of the reporting unit and the reporting unit's net assets, which are performed for goodwill impairment tests, are considered a Level 3 measurement due to the significance of unobservable inputs developed using company-specific information. We considered a market approach as well as an income approach using the DCF model to determine the fair value of the reporting unit.
Intangible Assets
We utilized a combination of an income approach and market approaches for estimating the fair value of intangible assets. The future cash flows used in the analysis are based on internal cash flow projections based on our long-range plans and include significant assumptions by management. Accordingly, the fair value assessment of the long-lived assets is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement.
 Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
At December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2018, we remeasured the contingent consideration liability related to our April 3, 2017 acquisition of CMM at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. Refer to Financial Note 4, “Business Combinations” for more information on the fair value of the contingent consideration liability.
