Fair Value Measurements

12 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2016

Our financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of the assets of our supplemental retirement benefit trust, which are included in other non-current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Contributions to the trust are presented in other investing activities on the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The assets of the trust consist of exchange traded securities and exchange traded mutual funds. The securities and mutual funds are recorded at fair value using observable market prices from active markets, which are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. The trust assets are as follows:



($000)	2016	2015

Money market	44	27
U.S. equity securities	435	395
Foreign equity funds	168	185
U.S. fixed income funds	223	177
Foreign fixed income funds	19	57
Absolute return strategy mutual funds	145	136
Total trust assets	1,034	977

The carrying amounts of our other financial instruments including cash equivalents, accounts receivable, notes receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value. The fair value of the assets in our defined benefit retirement plan are disclosed in Note 6 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Our Series A Notes, presented as current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, are stated at historical cost, net of unamortized debt issuance costs. The fair value of our long-term debt is based on the expected future cash flows of the debt discounted using a credit adjusted risk-free rate. The credit adjusted risk-free rate for our 4.26% Series A Notes is the estimated cost to borrow a debt instrument with the same terms from a private lender at the measurement date. The fair value of our long-term debt is categorized as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
