The following table presents supplemental fair value information about long term fixed rate and variable rate debt, excluding capital leases, at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015. Long term debt with a fair value of $3,986 million and $4,291 million at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively, was estimated using quoted Level 1 market prices. The carrying value of the remaining long term debt approximates fair value since the terms of the financing arrangements are similar to terms that could be obtained under current lending market conditions.
