Investment Impairments
We have concluded that no material impairment losses existed as of September 30, 2022. In making this determination, we considered the financial condition and prospects of each issuer, the magnitude of the losses compared with the cost, the probability that we will be unable to collect all amounts due according to the contractual terms of the security, the credit rating of the security and our ability and intent to hold these investments until the anticipated recovery in market value occurs.
Maturity Information
The amortized cost and estimated fair value of marketable securities as of September 30, 2022 by contractual maturity are shown below (in millions). Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because the issuers of the securities may have the right to prepay obligations with or without prepayment penalties.

Non-Current Investments and Restricted Cash
We hold an investment in a variable life insurance policy to fund benefits for the UPS Excess Coordinating Benefit Plan. The investment had a fair market value of $18 and $23 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Changes in fair value are recognized in Investment income and other in the statements of consolidated income. Additionally, we held cash in escrow of $2 and $3 million as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, related to the acquisition and disposition of certain assets. These amounts are classified as Investments and Restricted Cash in the consolidated balance sheets.

Fair Value Measurements
Marketable securities valued utilizing Level 1 inputs include active exchange-traded equity securities and equity index funds, and most U.S. government debt securities, as these securities all have quoted prices in active markets. Marketable securities valued utilizing Level 2 inputs include asset-backed securities, corporate bonds and municipal bonds. These securities are valued using market corroborated pricing, matrix pricing or other models that utilize observable inputs such as yield curves.
The following table presents information about our investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized to determine such fair value (in millions):
