The fair values were calculated utilizing an income approach based on Level 2 (observable) inputs. These inputs include mid-market valuation and then incor- porate the credit risk of the State and the bid/offer spread that would be charged to the State in order to transact. The mid-market values of the swaps were estimated using the zero-coupon method. This method calculates the future net settlement payments required by the swap, assuming that the current forward rates

implied by the yield curve correctly anticipate future spot interest rates. These payments are then dis- counted using the spot rates implied by the current yield curve for hypothetical zero-coupon bonds due on the date of each future net settlement date. The table below summarizes the terms of the State’s derivative instruments outstanding at March 31, 2019 for governmental activities and at June 30, 2018 for business-type activities (amounts in millions):
