The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables and accounts payable approximate fair value due to the short-term maturity of these items. These fair value estimates are considered Level 1 fair value estimates in the fair value hierarchy of fair value accounting. The estimated fair value of the Company’s outstanding debt balances (including current portion) as of December 31, 2013 and 2012 is set forth below (in thousands):

The carrying values of the balances outstanding under the term loan approximate their fair values as this instrument has a floating interest rate. The fair values of the Series A Notes and Series B Notes at December 31, 2013 and 2012 are based on discounted cash flows associated with the respective notes using current market rates of interest at those respective dates. For the Series A Notes, the current market rates used in measuring this fair value were 4.52% at December 31, 2013 and 3.36% at December 31, 2012. For the Series B Notes, the current market rates used in measuring this fair value were 4.89% at December 31, 2013 and 3.70% at December 31, 2012. These fair value estimates are based on observable market inputs and are considered Level 2 fair value estimates in the fair value hierarchy of fair value accounting.
