Fair Value Measurements FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The accounting standard for fair value measurements defines fair value and establishes a market-based framework or hierarchy for measuring fair value. The standard is applicable whenever assets and liabilities are measured at fair value. The fair value hierarchy established prioritizes the inputs used in valuation techniques into three levels as follows:
 
Level 1 - Observable inputs - quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities;

Level 2 - Observable inputs other than the quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities - includes quoted prices for similar instruments, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in inactive markets, and amounts derived from valuation models where all significant inputs are observable in active markets, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument; and
Level 3 - Unobservable inputs - includes amounts derived from valuation models where one or more significant inputs are unobservable and require us to develop relevant assumptions.

The following table summarizes the financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level they fall within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

Contingent consideration Contingent consideration - current and long-term Level 3$7,107 $1,081 

The change in the Level 3 fair value measurements from January 1, 2023 to October 1, 2023 relates primarily to an increase from the Arroyo Consulting acquisition, including $0.5 million in accretion, offset by a $1.1 million payment for Momentum Solutionz acquisition.

Key inputs in determining the fair value of the contingent consideration as of October 1, 2023 and January 1, 2023 included discount rates of approximately 16% as well as management's estimates of future sales volumes and earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”).
