(1) | The maturities of long-term marketable investments range from one to four years.
(2) | The fair value of Level 1 securities is measured based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets.
(3) | The fair value of Level 2 securities is measured using information obtained from pricing services, which obtain quoted market prices for similar instruments, non-binding market consensus prices that are corroborated by observable market data, or various other methodologies, to determine the appropriate value at the measurement date. We perform supplemental analysis to validate information obtained from these pricing services. No adjustments were made to such pricing information as of March 2, 2017.
Proceeds from sales of available-for-sale securities were $36 million and $548 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2017, respectively, and $585 million and $992 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2016, respectively. Gross realized gains and losses from sales of available-for-sale securities were not material for any period presented.
