The change in fair value of investment securities for fiscal years 2013, 2012, and 2011 was a decrease of $0.3 million and $0.1 million, and an increase of $0.2 million, respectively. Accounting standards pertaining to fair value measurements establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. This fair value hierarchy also requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Corporate, U.S. government and agency, and mortgage-backed securities are classified within Level 1 or Level 2 because these securities are valued using quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs. Investments and restricted investments measured at fair value at February 1, 2014 are summarized below:

The fair value measurement for funds with quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1) and for funds without quoted market prices in active markets (Level 2) are as follows:
($ millions) | 2013 |  |  | 2012 |
Level 1 | $ | 76.9 |  |  | $ | 65.9 |
Level 2 | 11.4 |  |  | 11.0 |
Total | $ | 88.3 |  |  | $ | 76.9 |
Fair market value for Level 2 funds is considered to be the sum of participant funds invested under a group annuity contract plus accrued interest.
