Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | 6. Fair Value Measurements Fair value measurements enable the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The Company classifies and discloses assets and liabilities carried at fair value in one of the following three categories: Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data. Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. Fair Value of Cash Equivalents and Investments The fair values of the Company’s cash equivalents and investments in marketable securities are based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets. The fair value of the Company’s Level 3 investment is not readily determinable. The fair value represents its cost with adjustments for observable changes in prices resulting from orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer or impairments. The following tables summarize the carrying amounts and fair values of certain assets at September 12, 2021 and January 3, 2021:

During the second quarter of 2020, a subsidiary of the Company acquired a non-controlling interest in Dash Brands Ltd., a privately-held business company limited by shares incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the British Virgin Islands (“Dash Brands”), for $40.0 million. Through its subsidiaries, Dash Brands serves as the Company’s master franchisee in China that owns and operates Domino’s Pizza stores in that market. The Company’s investment in Dash Brands’ senior ordinary shares, which are not in-substance common stock, represents an equity investment without a readily determinable fair value and is recorded at cost with adjustments for observable changes in prices resulting from orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer or impairments. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company invested an additional $40.0 million in Dash Brands based on Dash Brands’ achievement of certain pre-established performance conditions. In the first quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a positive adjustment of $2.5 million to the original carrying amount of $40.0 million resulting from the observable change in price from the valuation of the additional investment. This amount was recorded in other income in the Company’s condensed consolidated statements of income. The Company did not record any adjustments to the carrying amount of $82.5 million in the second or third quarter of 2021. The following table summarizes the reconciliation of the carrying amount of the Company’s investment in Dash Brands from the opening balance at January 3, 2021 to the closing balance at September 12, 2021.

Fair Value of Debt The estimated fair values of the Company’s fixed and floating rate notes are classified as Level 2 measurements, as the Company estimates the fair value amount by using available market information. The Company obtained quotes from two separate brokerage firms that are knowledgeable about the Company’s fixed and floating rate notes and, at times, trade these notes. The Company also performed its own internal analysis based on the information gathered from public markets, including information on notes that are similar to those of the Company. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to estimate fair value. Accordingly, the fair value estimates presented are not necessarily indicative of the amount that the Company or the debtholders could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different assumptions and/or estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair values stated below. Management estimated the approximate fair values of the 2015 fixed rate notes, the 2017 fixed and floating rate notes, the 2018 fixed rate notes, the 2019 fixed rate notes and the 2021 fixed rate notes as follows:
|  | September 12, 2021 |  |  | January 3, 2021 |
|  | Principal Amount |  |  | Fair Value |  |  | Principal Amount |  |  | Fair Value |
2015 Ten-Year Fixed Rate Notes |  | $ | 762,000 |  |  | $ | 794,766 |  |  | $ | 766,000 |  |  | $ | 809,662 |
