Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company holds certain financial instruments, which are recognized and disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in a transaction between market participants as of the measurement date. Fair value is measured using the fair value hierarchy and related valuation methodologies as defined in the authoritative literature. This guidance provides a fair value framework that requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows: Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active and model-derived valuations, in which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs reflecting management's own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability. The Company’s financial instruments consist of long-term debt, interest rate swaps, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximated their fair value. The Company's only two Level 2 fair value instrument relates to interest rate swaps. The Company utilizes interest rate swap contracts to manage its targeted mix of fixed and floating rate debt, and these swaps are valued using observable benchmark rates at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the swaps (market approach). These interest rate swaps are discussed in detail in Note 9. The following table presents financial liabilities measured and recorded at fair value on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets on a recurring basis and their level within the fair value hierarchy as of December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014: Core Molding Technologies' derivative instruments included on the Consolidated Balance Sheets were as follows:
| Balance Sheet Location |  | December 31, 2015 Fair Value |  | December 31, 2014 Fair Value
Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments Interest rate risk activities | Interest rate swaps |  | $ | 2,000 |  |  | $ | 37,000 |
At December 31, 2015 the Company's assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis related to the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of CPI, as disclosed in Note 7. The effect of derivative instruments on the Consolidated Statements of Income was as follows:
Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments |  | Location of Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivative |  | Amount of Realized/Unrealized Gain (Loss) Recognized in Income on Derivatives
Year ended |  |  |  | December 31, 2015 |  | December 31, 2014 |  | December 31, 2013
Interest rate swaps |  | Interest expense |  | $ | 14,000 |  |  | $ | 46,000 |  |  | $ | 73,000 |
During 2015 and 2014, the Company did not reclassify any amounts related to its cash flow hedges from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to earnings due to the probability that certain forecasted transactions would not occur. As discussed in Note 9, the Company discontinued the use of hedge accounting for its interest rate swaps. The Company now records all mark to market adjustments related to these interest rate swaps within interest expense in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income. It is anticipated that during the next twelve months the expiration and settlement of cash flow hedge contracts along with the loss amortization on its remaining discontinued hedge will result in income statement recognition of amounts currently classified in accumulated other comprehensive loss of approximately $5,000, or $2,000 net of taxes.
