Fair Value Measurements

Certain assets and liabilities of the Company are required to be recorded at fair value on either a recurring or non-recurring basis. Fair value is determined based on the price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants.

The fair value of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, current maturities of long-term debt (Note 7) and accounts payable approximate their carrying value due to their short term nature. On a recurring basis, the Company records its pension plan assets at fair value.

The table below presents the carrying value and fair value of these assets and liabilities of the Company as of June 29, 2013 and December 29, 2012, respectively (in thousands): 

	June 29, 2013				December 29, 2012
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents	$	11,876	$	11,876	$	8,110	$	8,110
Accounts receivable, net	244,670		244,670		258,199		258,199
Current maturities of long-term debt	7,483		7,483		11,748		11,748
Accounts payable	187,800		187,800		182,799		182,799

The Company is required, on a non-recurring basis, to adjust the carrying value of its long-lived assets held (Note 5), goodwill and other intangible assets (Note 6). These assets were determined by the Company to be Level 2 and Level 3 under the fair value hierarchy and are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis; however, they are subject to fair value adjustments in certain circumstances, such as when there is evidence that impairment may exist. The Company also records the assets and liabilities assumed in its acquisitions (Note 2) at fair value.
