Cash And Cash Equivalents [Abstract]

Cash, Cash Equivalents, and Investments

2. Cash, cash equivalents, and investments

Cash and cash equivalents include funds on hand and highly liquid investments purchased with initial maturity of three months or less. Short-term investments include securities with an expected maturity date within one year of the balance sheet date that do not meet the definition of cash equivalent, and long-term investments are securities with an expected maturity date greater than one year. The Company’s short-term and long-term investments are typically invested in municipal and corporate bonds, which, based on management’s intent and ability, are classified as held to maturity investments and are recorded at amortized cost. As of June 30, 2013, the Company’s investments have gross unrealized losses of less than $1,000. These investments are expected to be redeemed at par value, and because the Company has the ability and intent to hold these investments to maturity, the Company does not consider these investments to be other than temporarily impaired at June 30, 2013.

The following is a summary of cash, cash equivalents and held-to-maturity investments by type at June 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012:
