Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Disclosures | Fair value disclosures ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” provides a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The fair value hierarchy can be summarized as follows:
Level 1 |  | Fair value determined based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2 |  | Fair value determined using significant observable inputs, generally either quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities or quoted prices in markets that are not active.
Level 3 |  | Fair value determined using significant unobservable inputs, such as pricing models, discounted cash flows, or similar techniques.
Our assets and liabilities measured or disclosed at fair value are summarized below ($000’s omitted):
Financial Instrument |  | Fair Value Hierarchy |  | Fair Value
September 30, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013
Measured at fair value on a recurring basis: |  |  |  |  |  |
Residential mortgage loans available-for-sale |  | Level 2 |  | $ | 236,372 |  |  | $ | 287,933 |
Interest rate lock commitments |  | Level 2 |  | 6,116 |  |  | 3,139 |
Forward contracts |  | Level 2 |  | (708 | ) |  | 4,340 |
Whole loan commitments |  | Level 2 |  | (2 | ) |  | 105 |
Disclosed at fair value: |  |  |  |  |  |
Cash and equivalents (including restricted cash) |  | Level 1 |  | $ | 1,246,820 |  |  | $ | 1,653,044 |
Financial Services debt |  | Level 2 |  | 71,594 |  |  | 105,664 |
Senior notes |  | Level 2 |  | 1,900,488 |  |  | 2,070,744 |
Fair values for agency residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are determined based on quoted market prices for comparable instruments. Fair values for non-agency residential mortgage loans available-for-sale are determined based on purchase commitments from whole loan investors and other relevant market information available to management. Fair values for interest rate lock commitments, including the value of servicing rights, are based on market prices for similar instruments. Forward contracts on mortgage-backed securities are valued based on market prices for similar instruments. Fair values for whole loan investor commitments are based on market prices for similar instruments from the specific whole loan investor. Certain assets are required to be recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis when events and circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. There were no material amounts of such assets at either September 30, 2014 or December 31, 2013. The carrying amounts of cash and equivalents and Financial Services debt approximate their fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair values of senior notes are based on quoted market prices, when available. If quoted market prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted market prices of similar issues. The carrying value of senior notes was $1.8 billion at September 30, 2014 and $2.1 billion at December 31, 2013.
