6. | OTHER ASSETS
At December 31, 2019 and 2018 , the Company has obligations of $21.5 million and $18.7 million, respectively, associated with its SERP. As a means of informally funding these obligations, the Company has invested in life insurance policies related to certain employees and marketable securities held in a rabbi trust. At December 31, 2019 and 2018 , these assets had a combined value of $14.7 million and $13.0 million, respectively. Company-Owned Life Insurance Investments in company-owned life insurance policies ("COLI") were made with the intention of utilizing them as a long-term funding source for the Company's SERP obligations. However, the cash surrender value of the COLI does not represent a committed funding source for these obligations. Any proceeds from these policies are subject to claims from creditors. The cash surrender value of the COLI of $13.7 million and $11.6 million at December 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively, is included in other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The volatility in global equity markets in recent years has also had an effect on the cash surrender value of the COLI policies. The Company recorded income (expense) to account for the increase (decrease) in cash surrender value in the amount of $2.4 million and ( $0.4 ) million during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 , respectively. These fluctuations in the cash surrender value were allocated between cost of sales and selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 . The allocation is consistent with the costs associated with the long-term employee benefit obligations that the COLI is intended to fund. Other Investments At December 31, 2019 and 2018 , the Company held, in the aforementioned rabbi trust, available-for-sale investments at a cost of $1.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively. Together with the COLI described above, these investments are intended to fund the Company's SERP obligations and are classified as other assets in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The Company monitors these investments for impairment on an ongoing basis. At December 31, 2019 and 2018 , the fair market value of these investments was $1.1 million and $1.4 million, respectively.
