1 Amounts are reported in “Unrealized holding gains (losses) arising during period” on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income. 2 Amounts are reported in “Net realized gains” for realized gains and losses and “Net investment income earned” for amortization of securities on the Consolidated Statements of Income. 3 For the receivable related to the sale of Selective HR, amounts in “Loss on disposal of discontinued operations, net of tax” relate to an impairment charge and amounts in “Other income” relate to interest accretion on the Consolidated Statements of Income. As discussed in Note 2. "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies," in this Form 10-K, the fair value of our Level 3 fixed income securities are typically obtained through non-binding broker quotes, which we review for reasonableness. At December 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, there were no fixed income securities that were measured using Level 3 inputs. However, during 2013, securities with a fair value of $32.0 million were transferred out of Level 3 due to the availability of Level 2 pricing at December 31, 2013 that was not available previously. Equity securities with a fair value of $2.9 million were measured using Level 3 inputs at December 31, 2014 and at December 31, 2013. An equity security with a fair value of $4.6 million was transferred out of Level 3 during 2013 due to the availability of Level 2 pricing at the date of transfer. This security was subsequently sold for an amount that approximated the value at the transfer date. In addition, the receivable related to the sale of Selective HR was settled during 2013 and as a result was transferred out of Level 3. The following tables provide quantitative information regarding our financial assets and liabilities that were disclosed at fair value at December 31, 2014 and 2013:
