Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities into one of three levels based on the assumptions used in valuing the asset or liability. Estimates of fair value financial assets and liabilities are based on a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. In accordance with this guidance, fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

Level 1 - Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2 - Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities.

Level 3 - Model-derived valuations in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.
As previously discussed in Note 4, Acquisitions, the fair value of the earn-out liability was determined using a Monte-Carlo simulation model. The significant inputs used in the model are derived from a combination of observable and unobservable market data. Observable inputs used in the Monte Carlo simulation model include the risk-free rate and the revenue volatility while unobservable inputs used in the Monte Carlo simulation model include the revenue discount rate and the estimated revenue projections.
    
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 are summarized below:
As of March 31, 2021
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Earn-out liability $ —  $ —  $ 7,632  $ 7,632 
As of December 31, 2020
Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Total
Earn-out liability $ —  $ —  $ 6,865  $ 6,865 

Cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable are valued at their carrying amounts in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, due to the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments.

The carrying amount of long-term debt under the Company’s credit facility approximate fair value based on the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for a loan with similar terms and average maturity.
As of March 31, 2021, the estimated fair value of the Company’s finance lease obligation, based on current borrowing rates, was $6,892, compared to its carrying value of $6,652. As of December 31, 2020, the estimated fair value of the Company’s finance lease obligation, based on current borrowing rates, was $7,009, compared to its carrying value of $6,811.
