Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS Fair value measurements are estimated based on valuation techniques and inputs categorized as follows: •Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; •Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and •Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are financial instruments whose values are determined using discounted cash flow methodologies, pricing models, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant judgment or estimation. If the inputs used to measure the financial assets and liabilities fall within more than one level described above, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement of the instrument. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The following fair value hierarchy table presents the components and classification of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments, primarily money market funds, with maturities of three months or less when purchased, and are reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to their short-term nature. As of September 30, 2021, Restricted cash includes $1,210 million of payments into an escrow fund under the terms of a settlement agreement regarding certain U.S. securities litigation (which settlement agreement is subject to one objector's appeal of the final court approval of the agreement), and is reflected in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at carrying value, which approximates fair value due to its short-term nature. These payments will remain in escrow until resolution of the appeals of the final court approval of the settlement agreement, as discussed in Note 18, "LEGAL PROCEEDINGS". There were no transfers into or out of Level 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Cross-currency Swaps During 2019, the Company entered into cross-currency swaps, with aggregate notional amounts of $1,250 million, to mitigate fluctuation in the value of a portion of its euro-denominated net investment in its consolidated financial statements from fluctuation in exchange rates. The euro-denominated net investment being hedged is the Company’s investment in certain euro-denominated subsidiaries. The Company’s cross-currency swaps qualify for and have been designated as an accounting hedge of the foreign currency exposure of a net investment in a foreign operation and are remeasured at each reporting date to reflect changes in their fair values. The fair value is determined via a mark-to-market analysis, using observable (Level 2) inputs. These inputs may include: (i) the foreign currency exchange spot rate between the euro and U.S. dollar, (ii) the interest rate yield curves in the euro and U.S. dollar and (iii) the credit risk rating for each applicable counterparty. No portion of the cross-currency swaps was ineffective for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The assets and liabilities associated with the Company's cross-currency swaps as included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are as follows:
(in millions) | September 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Other non-current liabilities | $ | 22 |  |  | $ | 79 |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets | $ | 3 |  |  | $ | 9 |
Net fair value | $ | 19 |  |  | $ | 70 |
The following table presents the effect of hedging instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss and the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:
| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions) | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Gain (loss) recognized in Other comprehensive loss | $ | 28 |  |  | $ | (54) |  |  | $ | 57 |  |  | $ | 1 |

Interest settlement of the Company's cross-currency swaps occurs in February and August each year. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company received $23 million and $23 million, respectively, in interest settlements which are reported as investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts In 2020 and 2021, the Company entered into foreign currency exchange contracts. As of September 30, 2021, these contracts had an aggregate outstanding notional amount of $190 million. The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts are remeasured at each reporting date to reflect changes in their fair values determined using forward rates, which are observable market inputs, multiplied by the notional amount. The Company's foreign currency exchange contracts are economically hedging the foreign exchange exposure on certain of the Company’s intercompany balances. These contracts have not been designated as an accounting hedge, and therefore the net change in their fair value is reported as a gain or loss in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as part of Foreign exchange and other. Settlements of the Company's foreign currency exchange contracts are reported as a gain or loss in the Consolidated Statements of Operations as part of Foreign exchange and other and reported as operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. The assets and liabilities associated with the Company's foreign exchange contracts as included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are as follows:
(in millions) | September 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
Accrued and other current liabilities | $ | 2 |  |  | $ | 11 |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets | $ | 1 |  |  | $ | 3 |
Net fair value | $ | 1 |  |  | $ | 8 |
The following table presents the effect of the Company's foreign exchange contracts on the Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 and the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:
| Three Months Ended September 30, |  | Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions) | 2021 |  | 2020 |  | 2021 |  | 2020
Gain (loss) related to changes in fair value | $ | 2 |  |  | $ | — |  |  | $ | 7 |  |  | $ | (1) |
(Loss) gain related to settlements | $ | (5) |  |  | $ | 3 |  |  | $ | (14) |  |  | $ | (1) |
Acquisition-related Contingent Consideration Obligations The fair value measurement of contingent consideration obligations arising from business combinations is determined via a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis, using unobservable (Level 3) inputs. These inputs may include: (i) the estimated amount and timing of projected cash flows, (ii) the probability of the achievement of the factor(s) on which the contingency is based and (iii) the risk-adjusted discount rate used to present value the probability-weighted cash flows. Significant increases or decreases in any of those inputs in isolation could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. At September 30, 2021, the fair value measurements of acquisition-related contingent consideration were determined using risk-adjusted discount rates ranging from 6% to 18%, and a weighted average risk-adjusted discount rate of 7%. The weighted average risk-adjusted discount rate was calculated by weighting each contract's relative fair value at September 30, 2021. The following table presents a reconciliation of contingent consideration obligations measured on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020:
|  | Nine Months Ended September 30,

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis The following table presents the components and classification of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis:
|  | September 30, 2021 |  | December 31, 2020
(in millions) |  | Carrying Value |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3 |  | Carrying Value |  | Level 1 |  | Level 2 |  | Level 3

Non-current assets held for sale of $245 million included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2020 were remeasured to their estimated fair values less costs to sell, which utilized Level 3 unobservable inputs. Fair Value of Long-term Debt The fair value of long-term debt as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was $22,735 million and $25,378 million, respectively, and was estimated using the quoted market prices for the same or similar debt issuances (Level 2).
