Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | NOTE 7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Accounting standards define fair value based on an exit price model, establish a framework for measuring fair value for assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value, and provide for certain disclosures related to the valuation methods used within the valuation hierarchy as established within the accounting standards. This hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three broad levels as follows: •Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets. •Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets in markets that are not active, or other observable characteristics for the asset or liability, including interest rates, yield curves and credit risks, or inputs that are derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data through correlation. •Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on our assumptions. A financial asset or liability’s classification within the hierarchy is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis were as follows ($ in millions):
| Quoted Prices in Active Market (Level 1) |  | Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2) |  | Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) |  | Total
December 31, 2023 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Deferred compensation liabilities | — |  |  | 39.9 |  |  | — |  |  | 39.9 |
December 31, 2022 |  |  |  |  |  |  |
Deferred compensation liabilities | — |  |  | 31.5 |  |  | — |  |  | 31.5 |
Certain management employees participate in our nonqualified deferred compensation programs that permit such employees to defer a portion of their compensation, on a pretax basis, until after their termination of employment. All amounts deferred under such plans are unfunded, unsecured obligations and are recorded as a component of our compensation and other post-retirement benefits accruals within Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. Participants may choose among alternative earning rates for the amounts they defer, which are primarily based on investment options within our defined contribution plans for the benefit of U.S. employees (“401(k) Programs”) (except that the earnings rates for amounts contributed unilaterally by the Company are entirely based on changes in the value of Fortive common stock). Changes in the deferred compensation liability under these programs are recognized based on changes in the fair value of the participants’ accounts and are recorded within Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Non-recurring Fair Value Measurements Certain non-financial and financial assets that are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis and are reported at carrying value. However, these assets are required to be assessed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that their carrying value may not be fully recoverable. Refer to Note 2 for additional information about these assets. Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments The carrying amounts and fair values of financial instruments as of December 31 were as follows ($ in millions):
| 2023 |  | 2022
| Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value |  | Carrying Amount |  | Fair Value
Current portion of long-term debt | $ | — |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 999.7 |  |  | $ | 1,000.0 |
Long-term debt, net of current maturities | 3,646.2 |  |  | 3,539.4 |  |  | 2,251.6 |  |  | 2,078.1 |
As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the current portion of long-term debt and long-term debt, net of current maturities were categorized as Level 1. The fair value of the long-term borrowings were based on quoted market prices. The difference between the fair value and the carrying amounts of long-term borrowings may be attributable to changes in market interest rates and/or our credit ratings subsequent to the borrowing. The fair value of cash and equivalents, trade accounts receivable, net, and trade accounts payable, and commercial paper approximates their carrying amount due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Refer to Note 11 for information related to the fair value of the Company-sponsored defined benefit pension plan assets.
