Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS ASC 820, "Fair Value Measurement," defines fair value 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. ASC 820 also establishes a three-level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes information used in developing assumptions when pricing an asset or liability as follows: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2: Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and Level 3: Unobservable inputs where there is little or no market data, which requires the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions. ASC 820 requires the use of observable market data, when available, in making fair value measurements. When inputs used to measure fair value fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the level within which the fair value measurement is categorized is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Recurring Fair Value Measurements The following tables present the Company’s fair value hierarchy for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value (in millions):

Valuation Methods Commodity derivatives: The commodity derivatives are valued under a market approach using publicized prices, where available, or dealer quotes. Contingent earn-out liabilities: The contingent earn-out liabilities were established using a Monte Carlo simulation based on the forecasted operating results and the earn-out formula specified in the purchase agreements. Cross-currency interest rate swaps: The fair value of cross-currency interest rate swaps represents the difference between the swap's reference rate and exchange rate and the interest and exchange rates for a similar instrument as of the reporting period. Cross-currency interest rate swaps are valued under a market approach using publicized prices. Deferred compensation plan assets: Assets held in the deferred compensation plans will be used to pay benefits under certain of the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation plans. The investments primarily consist of mutual funds which are publicly traded on stock exchanges and are valued using a market approach based on the quoted market prices. Unrealized gains (losses) on the deferred compensation plan assets are recognized in the consolidated statements of income where they offset unrealized gains and losses on the related deferred compensation plan liability. Exchange traded funds: Investments in exchange traded funds are valued using a market approach based on quoted market prices, where available, or broker/dealer quotes of identical or comparable instruments. Refer to Note 21, "Commitments and Contingencies," of the notes to the consolidated financial statements for further information. Foreign currency exchange derivatives: The foreign currency exchange derivatives are valued under a market approach using publicized spot and forward prices. Interest rate swaps: The fair value of interest rate swaps represent the difference between the swap's reference rate and the interest rate for a similar instrument as of the reporting period. Interest rate swaps are valued under a market approach using publicized prices. The following table presents the portion of unrealized gains recognized in the consolidated statements of income that relate to equity securities still held at March 31, 2024 and 2023 (in millions):
|  | Three Months Ended March 31, |  | Six Months Ended March 31,
| 2024 |  | 2023 |  | 2024 |  | 2023
Deferred compensation plan assets |  | $ | 3 |  |  | $ | 2 |  |  | $ | 7 |  |  | $ | 5 |
Investments in exchange traded funds |  | 17 |  |  | 12 |  |  | 39 |  |  | 23 |
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term debt and accounts payable approximate their carrying values. The fair value of long-term debt at March 31, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was as follows (in billions):
|  | March 31, |  | September 30, |
| 2024 |  | 2023 |
Public debt |  | $ | 7.6 |  |  | $ | 7.1 |  |
Other long-term debt |  | 0.4 |  |  | 0.4 |  |
Total fair value of long-term debt |  | $ | 8.0 |  |  | $ | 7.5 |  |
The fair value of public debt was determined primarily using market quotes which are classified as Level 1 inputs within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy. The fair value of other long-term debt was determined using quoted market prices for similar instruments and are classified as Level 2 inputs within the ASC 820 fair value hierarchy.
