Fair Value Hierarchy of Our Financial Instruments Financial Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
(in millions) | Fair Value Hierarchy |  | July 31, 2018 |  | October 31, 2017
Cash and cash equivalents(1) | 1 |  | $ | 46.0 |  |  | $ | 62.8 |
Insurance deposits(2) | 1 |  | 0.6 |  |  | 11.2 |
Assets held in funded deferred compensation plan(3) | 1 |  | 2.8 |  |  | 4.6 |
Credit facility(4) | 2 |  | 1,036.1 |  |  | 1,191.2 |
Interest rate swaps(5) | 2 |  | — |  |  | 2.9 |

(1) Cash and cash equivalents are stated at nominal value, which equals fair value. (2) Represents restricted deposits that are used to collateralize our insurance obligations and are stated at nominal value, which equals fair value. These insurance deposits are included in “Other noncurrent assets” on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. See Note 8, “Insurance,” for further information. (3) Represents investments held in a Rabbi trust associated with one of our deferred compensation plans, which we include in “Other noncurrent assets” on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of the assets held in the funded deferred compensation plan is based on quoted market prices. (4) Represents gross outstanding borrowings under our syndicated line of credit and term loan. Due to variable interest rates, the carrying value of outstanding borrowings under our line of credit and term loan approximates the fair value. See Note 9, “Credit Facility,” for further information. (5) Represents interest rate swap derivatives designated as cash flow hedges. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are estimated based on the present value of the difference between expected cash flows calculated at the contracted interest rates and the expected cash flows at current market interest rates using observable benchmarks for LIBOR forward rates at the end of the period. At October 31, 2017, these interest rate swaps were included in “Other noncurrent assets” on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. During April 2018, we elected to terminate our interest rate swaps. See Note 9, “Credit Facility,” for further information. (6) The fair value of investments in auction rate securities is based on discounted cash flow valuation models, primarily utilizing unobservable inputs, including assumptions about the underlying collateral, credit risks associated with the issuer, credit enhancements associated with financial insurance guarantees, and the possibility of the security being re-financed by the issuer or having a successful auction. These amounts are included in “Other investments” on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. See Note 7, “Auction Rate Securities,” for further information. (7) Certain of our acquisitions involve the payment of contingent consideration. The fair value of these liabilities is based on the expected achievement of certain pre-established revenue goals. Our contingent consideration liability is included in “Other accrued liabilities” and “Other noncurrent liabilities” on the accompanying unaudited consolidated balance sheets. During the nine months ended July 31, 2018, we had no transfers of assets or liabilities between any of the above hierarchy levels. Non-Financial Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis In certain circumstances we measure certain assets that are subject to fair value adjustments at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets can include: goodwill; intangible assets; property, plant and equipment; and long-lived assets that have been reduced to fair value when they are held for sale. On November 1, 2017, we reorganized our reportable segments and goodwill reporting units. In connection with this reorganization, we performed a qualitative goodwill impairment test immediately before and after the segment realignment. In analyzing the results of operations and business conditions of the goodwill reporting units, we determined the likelihood of a goodwill impairment did not reach the more-likely-than-not threshold specified in U.S. GAAP for any of the reporting units that were evaluated. Accordingly, we concluded that goodwill related to those reporting units was not impaired and further quantitative testing was not required.
