(a)	The Deferred Compensation Plan assets consist of various mutual funds. See Note 15 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, for additional information regarding our Deferred Compensation Plan.

(b)

The contingent consideration represents the estimated fair value of the additional variable cash consideration payable in connection with our acquisition of Respawn Entertainment, LLC (“Respawn”) that is contingent upon the achievement of certain performance milestones. We estimated fair value using a probability-weighted income approach combined with a real options methodology, and applied a discount rate that appropriately captures the risk associated with the obligation. At September 30, 2019, the discount rates used ranged from 2.5 percent to 2.6 percent. There were no material changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration during the six months ended September 30, 2019. At March 31, 2019, the discount rates used ranged from 2.9 percent to 3.1 percent. See Note 7 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2019, for additional information regarding the Respawn acquisition.


(c)	The change in fair value is reported as acquisition-related contingent consideration in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

(d) During the six months ended September 30, 2019, we paid $70 million for performance milestones achieved in connection with our acquisition of Respawn.

As of September 30, 2019 and March 31, 2019, our assets and liabilities that were measured and recorded at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows (in millions):
