Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments

Derivative Instruments. The Company is exposed to interest rate risk related to its floating rate debt. The Company balances its cost of debt and exposure to interest rates primarily through its mix of fixed and floating rate debt. From time to time, the Company may use interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to interest rate risk.

The Company measures its interest rate swaps at fair value. The fair values of the Company's interest rate swaps (Level 2) are determined based on discounted cash flow analysis, reflecting the terms of the contracts, and utilize observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves.

As of September 30, 2015, the Company had a gross notional amount of $19.2 million related to interest rate swaps that were assumed in connection with 2013 acquisitions, in which the floating rates were swapped for fixed rates. The table below presents the fair value of derivative financial instruments, which are included in Other non-current liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets (in millions):

	As of September 30,		As of December 31,
	2015		2014

The amount of expense the Company recorded in Interest income and other in the condensed consolidated statements of income for the change in the fair values of the interest rate swaps was not material in 2014 or 2015.
