We estimated the fair value of each class of financial instruments, for which estimating fair value is practicable, by applying the following methods and assumptions: Cash and cash equivalents—The carrying amount of our cash and cash equivalents represents the historical cost, plus accrued interest. Our cash equivalents are primarily invested in short‑term time deposits and money market funds. The carrying amount of our cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value because of the short maturities of the instruments. Short‑term investments—The carrying amount of our unrestricted short‑term investments represents the historical cost of the time deposits in which they are invested. The carrying amount of such short‑term investments approximates fair value because of the near‑term maturities of the instruments. Restricted cash and cash equivalents—The carrying amount of our restricted cash and cash equivalents, which are subject to restrictions due to collateral requirements, legislation, regulation or court order, approximates fair value due to the near‑term maturities of the instruments in which the restricted balances are held. At September 30, 2018, the aggregate carrying amount of such restricted cash and cash equivalents was $568 million, including $561 million and $7 million recorded in current assets and other assets, respectively. At December 31, 2017, the aggregate carrying amount of such restricted cash and cash equivalents was $456 million, including $440 million and $16 million recorded in current assets and other assets, respectively. Restricted investments—The carrying amount of our restricted investments, which are pledged for security of certain other credit arrangements, represents the amortized historical cost of the investment. The carrying amount of such restricted investments approximates fair value because of the near‑term maturities of the instruments. At September 30, 2018, the aggregate carrying amount of the restricted cash investments was $7 million, recorded in other assets. At December 31, 2017, the aggregate carrying amount of the restricted cash investments was $33 million, including $26 million and $7 million, recorded in current assets and other assets, respectively. Debt—The carrying amount of our debt represents the principal amount, net of unamortized discounts, premiums, debt issue costs and fair value adjustments. We measured the estimated fair value of our debt using significant other observable inputs, representative of a Level 2 fair value measurement, including the terms and credit spreads for the instruments. Derivative instruments—The carrying amount of our derivative instruments represents the estimated fair value of such instruments. We measured the estimated fair value of our derivative instruments using significant other observable inputs, representative of a Level 2 fair value measurement, including the terms and credit spreads for the instruments.
