Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS | FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Accounting standards for fair value measurements establish a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers are defined as: Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable. Level 3 – Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis consisted of the following (amounts in thousands):
| June 30, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013
