Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | 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. There is a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in determining fair value by their reliability and preferred use, as follows: Level 1 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 - Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data. Level 3 - Valuations based on inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable. At March 31, 2016 and 2015, the carrying amounts of cash, certain cash equivalents, restricted cash, marketable securities, receivables, drafts and accounts payable, short-term borrowings and other current liabilities approximated their estimated fair values because of the short maturity of these financial instruments. Our long-term debt is carried at amortized cost. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values of these liabilities were $8.1 billion and $8.6 billion at March 31, 2016 and $9.7 billion and $10.4 billion at March 31, 2015. The estimated fair value of our long-term debt was determined using quoted market prices in a less active market and other observable inputs from available market information, which are considered to be Level 2 inputs, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis Our financial assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis consist of the following:

(1) Gross unrealized gain and losses were not material for the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015 based on quoted prices of identical investments. (2) The carrying amounts of these cash equivalents approximated their estimated fair values because of their short maturities. Fair values of our marketable securities were determined using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, which are considered Level 1 inputs under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance. Fair values for our marketable securities were not material at March 31, 2016 and 2015. Fair values of our forward foreign currency contracts were determined using quoted market prices of similar instruments in an active market and other observable inputs from available market information. Fair values of our foreign currency swaps were determined using quoted foreign currency exchange rates and other observable inputs from available market information. These inputs are considered Level 2 under the fair value measurements and disclosure guidance, and may not be representative of actual values that could have been realized or that will be realized in the future. Refer to Financial Note 20, “Hedging Activities,” for fair value and other information on our foreign currency derivatives including foreign currency forward contracts and swaps. There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy during the years ended March 31, 2016 and 2015. Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis We measure certain long-lived assets and goodwill at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired. If the cost of an investment exceeds its fair value, we evaluate, among other factors, our intent to hold the investment, general market conditions, the duration and extent to which the fair value is less than cost and the financial outlook for the industry and location. An impairment charge is recorded when the cost of the asset exceeds its fair value and this condition is determined to be other-than-temporary. Fiscal 2015 As discussed in Financial Note 9, “Discontinued Operations,” during the fourth quarter of 2015, we recorded a $241 million pre-tax ($235 million after-tax) non-cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of our Brazilian distribution business to its estimated fair value, less cost to sell. The fair value of this business was determined using income and market valuation approaches. Under the income approach, we used a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) analysis based on the estimated future results. This valuation approach is considered a Level 3 fair value measurement due to the use of significant unobservable inputs related to the timing and amount of future cash flows based on projections of revenues and operating costs and discounting those cash flows to their present value. The key inputs and assumptions of the DCF method are the projected cash flows, the terminal value of the business and the discount rate. Under the market approach, we apply valuation multiples of reasonably similar publicly traded companies to the operating data of the subject business to derive the estimated fair value. This valuation approach is also considered a Level 3 fair value measurement. The key inputs for the market valuation approach were revenues and a selection of market multiples. The ultimate loss from the sale of the business may be higher or lower than our current assessment of the business’ fair value. Fiscal 2014 As discussed in Financial Note 9, “Discontinued Operations,” during 2014, we recorded an $80 million non-cash pre-tax and after-tax impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of our International Technology business to its estimated fair value, less costs to sell. The impairment charge was primarily the result of the terms of the preliminary purchase offers received for this business during 2014. Accordingly, the fair value measurement is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
