FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | ​ 26. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. To determine fair value, the company uses various methods including market and income approaches. The company utilizes valuation models and techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs. The models are industry-standard models that consider various assumptions including time values and yield curves as well as other economic measures. These valuation techniques are consistently applied. Level 1 measurements consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 measurements include significant other observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets; observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves; and other market-corroborated inputs. Level 3 measurements include significant unobservable inputs. The fair values of financial instruments that do not approximate the carrying values at October 31, 2021 and November 1, 2020 in millions of dollars follow: ​

* Fair value measurements above were Level 3 for all financing receivables, Level 3 for equipment operations short-term securitization borrowings, and Level 2 for all other borrowings.
** | Values exclude finance lease liabilities that are presented as borrowings (see Note 25).
​ Fair values of the financing receivables that were issued long-term were based on the discounted values of their related cash flows at interest rates currently being offered by the company for similar financing receivables. The fair values of the remaining financing receivables approximated the carrying amounts. Fair values of long-term borrowings and short-term securitization borrowings were based on current market quotes for identical or similar borrowings and credit risk, or on the discounted values of their related cash flows at current market interest rates. Certain long-term borrowings have been swapped to current variable interest rates. The carrying values of these long-term borrowings included adjustments related to fair value hedges. Assets and liabilities measured at October 31, 2021 and November 1, 2020 at fair value on a recurring basis in millions of dollars follow, excluding the company’s cash equivalents, which were carried at cost that approximates fair value and consisted primarily of money market funds and time deposits. Level 3 marketable securities were transferred to Level 2 in 2021. ​

Funds are primarily valued using the fund’s net asset value, based on the fair value of the underlying securities. The Level 3 measurement international debt securities were primarily valued using an income approach based on discounted cash flows using yield curves derived from limited, observable market data. Derivatives – The company’s derivative financial instruments consist of interest rate contracts (swaps), foreign currency exchange contracts (futures, forwards and swaps), and cross-currency interest rate contracts (swaps). The portfolio is valued based on an income approach (discounted cash flow) using market observable inputs, including swap curves and both forward and spot exchange rates for currencies. Financing receivables – Specific reserve impairments are based on the fair value of the collateral, which is measured using a market approach (appraisal values or realizable values). Inputs include a selection of realizable values (see Note 13). Other receivables – The impairment was based on the expected realization of value-added tax receivables related to a closed factory operation (see Note 5). Equipment on operating leases – net – The impairments are based on an income approach (discounted cash flow), using the contractual payments, plus an estimate of return rates and equipment sale price at lease maturity. Inputs include historical return rates and realized sales values (see Note 5). Property and equipment – net – The impairments are measured at the lower of the carrying amount, or fair value. The valuations were based on cost and market approaches. The inputs include replacement cost estimates adjusted for physical deterioration and economic obsolescence, or quoted prices when available (see Note 5). Investment in unconsolidated affiliates – Other than temporary impairments for investments are measured as the difference between the implied fair value or the estimated realization amount, and the carrying value. The fair value for publicly traded entities is the share price multiplied by the shares owned, or the estimated realization amount (see Note 5). Other intangible assets – net – The impairment was measured at the remaining net book value of customer relationships related to a closed factory operation (see Note 5). Other assets – The impairments of the matured operating lease inventory were measured at the fair value of that equipment. The valuations were based on a market approach. The inputs include sales of comparable assets. The impairment of the German lawn mower business was measured at the estimated realizable value. Fair value was based on estimates of the final sale price (see Note 5).
