Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Accounting guidance and standards about fair value define fair value as the price that would be received from selling an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Fair Value Hierarchy Fair value hierarchy requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The accounting guidance and standards establish three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
• | Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
• | Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets with insufficient volume or infrequent transactions (less active markets); or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 liabilities that are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis include the Company’s convertible senior subordinated notes, production loans, 5.875% Senior Notes, Term Loan A and Term Loan B, which are priced using discounted cash flow techniques that use observable market inputs, such as LIBOR-based yield curves, swap rates, and credit ratings.
• | Level 3 — Unobservable inputs to the valuation methodology that are significant to the measurement of fair value of assets or liabilities. The Company measures the fair value of its investment in Pop's mandatorily redeemable preferred stock units using primarily a discounted cash flow analysis based on the expected cash flows of the investment. The analysis reflects the contractual terms of the investment, including the period to maturity, and uses a discount rate commensurate with the risk associated with the investment.
The following table sets forth the assets and liabilities required to be carried at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2017 and 2016:

(1) | At March 31, 2016, the Company classified the Series A common stock of Starz within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy as the valuation inputs were based on quoted prices in active markets. The Series B common stock of Starz was considered a Level 2 security because the quoted market prices were based on infrequent transactions. Therefore, the fair value of the Series B common stock, which was convertible, at the holder’s option, into Series A common stock of Starz was based on the quoted market price of the Series A common stock, which was an equivalent security other than for the voting rights.
