Fair Value Remeasurement Based on Significant Inputs Not Observable, Level 3 Measurement

The Company determines the fair value of certain purchase price obligations on a recurring basis based on a probability-weighted discounted cash flow analysis and Monte Carlo simulation. The fair value remeasurement is based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represents a Level 3 measurement as defined in the fair value hierarchy. In each period, the Company reassesses its current estimates of performance relative to the stated targets and adjusts the liability to fair value. Any such adjustments are included in Acquisition, severance and transition costs, a component of Selling, general and administrative expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. Changes in the fair value of purchase price obligations for the year ended December 31, 2015 were as follows:
