Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]  
Fair Value Disclosures
Fair Value Disclosures
In determining fair value, the accounting standards establish a three-level hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value, as follows:
•
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
•
Level 2 — Significant observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, such as quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
•
Level 3 — Significant unobservable inputs reflecting our own assumptions, consistent with reasonably available assumptions made by other market participants.
REIT Assets Measured on a Recurring Basis
During 2013, we sold our remaining investments in public REIT assets. The market value of our investment in public REIT assets were accounted for as available-for-sale securities and were carried at fair value on an ongoing basis in Other assets in the unaudited Interim Consolidated Balance Sheets. We determined the fair value of our investments in REITs using quoted market prices. There were no transfers in or out of any levels during any period presented. Our REIT assets measured at fair value were as follows:

The fair value of long-term debt was estimated by obtaining quotes from brokers or was based on current rates offered for similar debt. As of November 1, 2014, November 2, 2013 and February 1, 2014, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximated their carrying values due to the short-term nature of these instruments. In addition, the fair values of capital lease commitments and the note payable approximated their carrying values. These items have been excluded from the table above.
Concentrations of Credit Risk
We have no significant concentrations of credit risk.
