(a) | The Company typically elects the fair value option upon origination for mortgage loans held for sale. Interest income earned on mortgage loans held for sale is based on contractual interest rates and included in other income. Mortgage loans held for sale valued using Level 3 inputs at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018 include $8.4 million and $7.8 million, respectively, of loans for which the Company elected the fair value option upon origination and did not sell into the secondary market. The fair value of these mortgage loans held for sale is generally calculated considering pricing in the secondary market and adjusted for the value of the underlying collateral, including interest rate risk, liquidity risk and prepayment risk. The Company plans to sell these loans as market conditions permit.
(b) | Fair value measurements of these derivatives represent changes in fair value, as calculated by reference to quoted prices for similar assets, and are reflected in the balance sheet as other assets or accrued expenses and other liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives are included in revenues in the consolidated statements of operations.
The following table summarizes the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018:
|  |  | Fair Value at March 31, 2019 |  | Fair Value at September 30, 2018

(a) | The fair values included in the table above represent only those assets whose carrying values were adjusted to fair value as a result of impairment in the respective period and were held at the end of the period.
(b) | In performing its impairment analysis of communities, discount rates ranging from 12% to 16% were used in the periods presented.
(c) | The fair value of inventory available for sale was determined based on recent offers received from outside third parties, comparable sales or actual contracts.
(d) | These mortgage loans have some degree of impairment affecting their marketability and are valued at the lower of carrying value or fair value. When available, quoted prices in the secondary market are used to determine fair value (Level 2); otherwise, a cash flow valuation model is used to determine fair value (Level 3).
(e) | The fair value of other mortgage loans was determined based on the value of the underlying collateral.
For the financial assets and liabilities that the Company does not reflect at fair value, the following tables present both their respective carrying value and fair value at March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2018:
