Fair Value Accounting
Note 2. Derivative Instruments and Fair Value Accounting
Derivative Instruments
We use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in interest rates, both in anticipation of future debt issuances and to offset interest rate variability of certain floating rate debt issuances outstanding. We also may use derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of changes in natural gas and diesel fuel prices and changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are accounted for by recording the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCL") as a separate component of stockholders' equity and reclassified into earnings in the period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. We continuously monitor our derivative positions and the credit ratings of our counterparties and do not anticipate losses due to non-performance. See Note 7 for a description of our debt instruments.

Fair Value Measurements
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. An entity is required to establish a fair value hierarchy that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value are listed below.
Level 1 This level is defined as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Our cash equivalents and restricted cash are instruments of the U.S. Treasury or highly-rated money market mutual funds. The assets measured as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:
Level 1
 June 30, 2020December 31, 2019
(in millions)
Assets:
Cash equivalents$76.1  $57.9  
Restricted cash136.9  111.4  
Total assets$213.0  $169.3  
Level 2 This level is defined as observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Interest rate hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty. Foreign currency hedges are valued at exit prices obtained from each counterparty, which are based on currency spot and forward rates and forward points. The assets and liabilities measured as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy are summarized below:

Total liabilities$53.9  $28.0  
(1) Included in other assets in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2) Included in accrued liabilities in our Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Level 3 This level is defined as unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, we have no assets measured as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy, except as described in Note 10 to this Form 10-Q and Note 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
See Note 10 for more information regarding the non-recurring fair value measurement considerations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 for the impairment charge related to our small cube covered hopper railcars. See Note 7 for the estimated fair values of our debt instruments. The fair values of all other financial instruments are estimated to approximate carrying value.
