Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Debt	Debt During the three months ended March 31, 2015, we made a principal payment of $1.6 million, on our seven-year term loan, due October 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, cash payments for interest were $15.9 million and $10.5 million, respectively. Included in interest expense, net, are amortization of treasury lock settlements and amortization of financing costs, partially offset by patronage interest rebates. For both the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, amortization of treasury lock settlements was $1.4 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, amortization of financing costs was $0.4 million and $0.5 million, respectively. Also, during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014, we received a patronage interest rebate of $4.1 million and $0.8 million, respectively. For more information on our long-term debt and interest rates on that debt, see Note 10, Debt, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. At March 31, 2015, we had $1,647.0 million of fixed-rate senior notes and $706.9 million of variable-rate term loans outstanding. At March 31, 2015, the fair value of our fixed-rate debt was estimated to be $1,737.6 million. The difference between the book value and fair value is due to the difference between the period-end market interest rate and the stated rate of our fixed-rate debt. We estimated the fair value of our fixed-rate debt using quoted market prices (Level 2 inputs) within the fair value hierarchy, which is further defined in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in "Part II, Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" of our 2014 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The fair value of our variable-rate term debt approximates the carrying amount as our cost of borrowing is variable and approximates current market rates.
