Level 2 measurements

•Debt: The fair value of debt is based on the market price for similar financial instruments or model-derived valuations with observable inputs. The primary inputs to the valuation include market expectations, the Company's credit risk, and the contractual terms of the debt instrument.

•Derivatives: The fair value of derivatives is determined using the discounted cash flow analysis of the expected future cash flows. The primary inputs to the valuation include forward yield curves, implied volatilities, LIBOR rates, and credit valuation adjustments.

Level 3 measurements

•Guarantees: The fair value of guarantees is determined using the discounted cash flow analysis of the expected future cash flows or historical loss rates. The primary inputs to the discounted cash flow analysis include market interest rates ranging between 15.0% to 75.8% and the Company’s historical loss rates ranging between 2.2% to 10.0% as of September 30, 2019. The historical loss rate was weighted by the principal balance of the loans.

•Securitized beneficial interests: The fair value of securitized beneficial interests is determined using the present value of future expected cash flows. The primary inputs to this valuation include payment speeds of 65 to 73 days and discount rates of 3.5% to 4.6% as of September 30, 2019. The discount rate was weighted by the outstanding interest. Payment speed was weighted by the average days outstanding.
