_________________ (1) Investment deposit accounts are short-term in nature, and the value is determined by principal plus interest. The investment portfolio mix can change each period based on the Company's assessment of investment options. (2) Derivative assets and liabilities classified as Level 1 are commodity futures contracts valued based on quoted market prices in the London Metal Exchange or New York Mercantile Exchange. Amounts in Level 2 are based on broker quotes in the over-the-counter market. Fair value of Level 3 derivative liabilities is based on unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which requires management’s own assumptions within an internally developed cash flow model. Further discussion regarding the Company's use of derivative instruments is included in Note 9, Derivatives.
