Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair value of the company's marketable securities | The only assets we record at fair value on our consolidated financial statements are the marketable securities related to our Deferred Compensation Plan (see Note 14 “Employee Benefit Plans” for additional information). The following table sets forth the fair value of our marketable securities as of December 31, 2015 and 2014:
| Fair Value (Level 1) (1)
| 2015 |  | 2014
Description | (in thousands)
Marketable securities (2) | $ | 12,882 |  |  | $ | 11,971 |
_______________
(1) | Fair value calculated using Level 1 inputs based on quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
(2) | The marketable securities are held in a limited rabbi trust.
We report the change in the fair value of the marketable securities at the end of each accounting period in interest income and other net investment gains in the consolidated statements of operations. We also adjust the related Deferred Compensation Plan liability to fair value at the end of each accounting period based on the performance of the benchmark funds selected by each participant, which results in a corresponding increase or decrease to compensation cost for the period.
