Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
We evaluated our financial assets and liabilities for those financial assets and liabilities that met the criteria of the disclosure requirements and fair value framework. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate the fair values of those instruments due to the short-term nature of the instruments. The fair values of our receivables on preneed cemetery contracts are impracticable to estimate because of the lack of a trading market and the diverse number of individual contracts with varying terms. Our acquisition debt and New Credit Facility (as defined in Note 10) and New Senior Notes (as defined in Note 11) are classified within Level 2 of the Fair Value Measurements hierarchy.
At June 30, 2021, the carrying value and fair value of our New Credit Facility was $60.5 million. We believe that our New Credit Facility bears interest at a rate that approximates prevailing market rates for instruments with similar characteristics and therefore, the carrying value of our New Credit Facility approximates fair value. We estimate the fair value of our acquisition debt utilizing an income approach, which uses a present value calculation to discount payments based on current market rates as of the reporting date. At June 30, 2021, the carrying value of our acquisition debt was $5.2 million, which approximated its fair value. The fair value of our New Senior Notes was approximately $399.5 million at June 30, 2021 based on the last traded or broker quoted price.
At December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, we did not have any assets that had fair values determined by Level 3 inputs and no liabilities measured at fair value.
We identified investments in fixed income securities, common stock and mutual funds presented within the preneed and perpetual care trust investments categories on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as having met the criteria for fair value measurement. Our receivables from preneed funeral trusts represent assets in trusts which are controlled and operated by third parties in which we do not have a controlling financial interest (less than 50%) in the trust assets. We account for these investments at cost. See Notes 6 and 7 to our Consolidated Financial Statements herein for the fair value hierarchy levels of our trust investments.
