We base our valuations of available-for-sale equity securities on their quoted prices on an active exchange. We value derivatives using a pricing model with inputs (such as yield curves and foreign currency rates) that are observable in the market or that can be derived principally from observable market data.

In addition, we review long-lived assets, such as operating assets and facilities, for impairment whenever circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of these assets may not be recoverable. We determine the fair value of the respective assets using Level 3 inputs, including estimates of discounted future cash flows (including net proceeds from sale), independent appraisals, and market comparables, as applicable. See "Note 11. Asset Impairments" for further information about our impairment losses. The fair value of assets held at December 31 that were subject to non-recurring Level 3 fair value measurements was $34.0 million and $2.5 million for 2015 and 2014. These amounts are consistent with the fair value of the assets at the time of impairment.

Derivative instruments

Fair Value Hedges

We use interest rate swaps to manage the fixed-to-floating rate mix of our debt obligations by converting the fixed rate debt to floating rate debt. For fair value hedges, we recognize changes in fair value of both the derivative and the hedged item as interest expense. We had eight instruments outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of $550.0 million as of December 31, 2015 that mature from 2017 to 2020 and eight instruments outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of $600.0 million as of December 31, 2014.

Cash Flow Hedges

We use interest rate swaps to convert floating rate debt to fixed rate debt. We use Treasury rate locks to hedge our exposure to interest rate risk on anticipated transactions. We also use currency swaps to hedge our exposure to fluctuations in the exchange rates of the foreign currencies in which we conduct business. We had ten instruments outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of $442.9 million as of December 31, 2015 that mature from 2016 to 2022 and seven instruments outstanding with an aggregate notional amount of $281.5 million as of December 31, 2014. Within the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify $5.8 million ($3.6 million after-tax) of net losses on previously terminated derivatives from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to interest expense or operating lease expense, as applicable. We reclassify these amounts when interest and operating lease expense on the related hedged transactions affect earnings.

Non-designated Derivatives

We do not hold derivative financial instruments for purposes other than hedging, although certain of our derivatives are not designated as accounting hedges. We recognize changes in the fair value of these derivatives in other (income) expense immediately.

Some of our derivative instruments contain credit risk provisions that could require us to make immediate payment on net liability positions in the event that we default on certain outstanding debt obligations. The aggregate fair value of our derivative instruments with credit risk related contingent features that are in a liability position as of December 31, 2015 was $1.4 million. We are not required to post any collateral on our derivative instruments and do not expect the credit risk provisions to be triggered.

In the event that a counterparty fails to meet the terms of an interest rate swap agreement or a foreign exchange contract, our exposure is limited to the fair value of the swap, if in our favor. We manage the credit risk of counterparties by transacting with institutions that we consider financially sound and by avoiding concentrations of risk with a single counterparty. We believe that the risk of non-performance by any of our counterparties is remote.

(1)
The fair value adjustments related to the underlying debt equally offset the amounts recognized in interest expense.
(2)
For 2015 and 2014, includes $6.1 million and $2.1 million of gains on foreign currency derivatives which are substantially offset by losses from foreign currency remeasurement adjustments, also recognized in Other (income) expense.
(3)
For 2015 and 2014, includes $5.1 million, and $10.4 million of gains on foreign currency derivatives which substantially offset losses from foreign currency remeasurement adjustments on the AAE loan, also recognized in Other (income) expense.


Other Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, rent and other receivables, accounts payable, and commercial paper and bank credit facilities approximate fair value due to the short maturity of those instruments. We base the fair values of investment funds, which are accounted for under the cost method, on the best information available, which may include quoted investment fund values. We estimate the fair values of loans and fixed and floating rate debt using discounted cash flow analyses that are based on interest rates currently offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. The inputs we use to estimate each of these values are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are directly or indirectly observable inputs.
