Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements The Company utilizes the hierarchy of fair value measurements to classify certain of its assets and liabilities based upon the following definitions: Level 1 – Investments with quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company’s cash equivalents are invested in money market funds, mutual funds and certificates of deposit. The Company’s mutual fund investment assets represent contributions made and invested on behalf of the Company’s named executive officers in a supplementary employee retirement plan. Level 2 – Investments with observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 2 assets or liabilities. Level 3 – Investments with unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. The Company has no Level 3 assets or liabilities. The fair value measurement of assets held by the Company’s defined benefit pension plans is discussed in Note H. The Company's financial instruments include cash and equivalents, marketable securities and other investments; accounts receivable and accounts payable; and short- and long-term debt. The carrying values of cash and equivalents, accounts receivable and payable and short- and long-term debt on the Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate their fair value. The following table summarizes the fair value of assets that are recorded in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as of April 30, 2016 and 2015 at fair value on a recurring basis:
