	December 31, 2019
			Hierarchy Level
($ in millions)	Carrying Amount		Level 1		Level 3
Assets:
Timeshare financing receivables⁽¹⁾	$	1,156	$	—	$	1,446
Liabilities:
Debt⁽²⁾		828		326		544
Non-recourse debt⁽²⁾		747		—		749

⁽¹⁾	Carrying amount net of allowance for financing receivables losses.

⁽²⁾	Carrying amount net of unamortized deferred financing costs and discount.

Our estimates of the fair values were determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methods. Considerable judgment is necessary to interpret market data and develop the estimated fair values. The table above excludes cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable, advance deposits and accrued liabilities, all of which had fair values approximating their carrying amounts due to the short maturities and liquidity of these instruments.

The estimated fair values of our timeshare financing receivables were determined using a discounted cash flow model. Our model incorporates default rates, coupon rates, credit quality and loan terms respective to the portfolio based on current market assumptions for similar types of arrangements.

The estimated fair values of our Level 1 debt was based on prices in active debt markets. The estimated fair value of our Level 3 debt and non-recourse debt were as follows:

•

Debt – based on indicative quotes obtained for similar issuances and projected future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted rates

•

Non-recourse debt – based on projected future cash flows discounted at risk-adjusted rates.

Non-recurring fair value measurements

As of December 31, 2020, our assets that were measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of this date include land, estimated fair value $47 million, and infrastructure, estimated fair value $5 million, held for sale and property and equipment held for use. These assets are measured at fair value as a result of their classification as held for sale and our overall property and equipment impairment analysis. Refer to Note 2: Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies for further detail on the held for sale classification and measurement as well as the property and equipment impairment analysis and measurement. We utilized the market approach for the land and cost approach for infrastructure to determine their respective fair values. The fair value calculations involve judgement and are sensitive to key assumptions utilized, including comparative sales for land (level 2) and replacement costs for infrastructure (level 3). For the year ended December 31, 2020, we recorded an impairment charge of $209 million related to the land and infrastructure, which represents the excess of the carrying value over the estimated fair value. This charge is reflected on our consolidated statements of operations and the remaining carrying value of the assets is reflected in Land and infrastructure held for sale and Property and equipment on our consolidated balance sheets. See Note 7: Inventory and Note 8: Property and equipment for more information.
