Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The following methods and assumptions were used by the Company in estimating its fair value disclosures for financial instruments:

Accounts receivable and accounts payable: The carrying amounts reported in the balance sheet for accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their fair value based on their short-term nature.

The Company’s credit facility at December 31, 2014 bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.1% based upon covenants related to total indebtedness to earnings.  Using interest rate quotes currently available in the market and remaining cash flows on these arrangements, the Company estimated the fair value of its outstanding capital lease obligations as follows:
