Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
LOCATION AND AMOUNTS OF DERIVATIVE FAIR VALUES ON THE CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET
The following table summarizes the balance sheet classification of derivatives recorded at fair value. The notional amount of derivative contracts represents the basis upon which pay or receive amounts are calculated and is presented in the table to quantify the volume of our derivative activities. Notional amounts are not reflective of credit risk.

None of our derivative instruments are designated as hedges under current accounting guidance.
