All derivatives, whether designated as a hedge or not, are required to be recorded on the consolidated balance sheet at fair value. If the derivative is designated as a hedge and is highly effective as a hedging instrument, recognition of changes in fair value depend on whether the derivative is used in a fair value hedge, in which changes are recognized in earnings, or cash flow hedge, in which changes are recognized in other comprehensive income. If the derivative is not designated as a hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are recognized in earnings. Refer to Note 10 – Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities for a discussion of hedging activities for the period presented. </p>
